since1982, you are right. Playing piano/keyboard is not all about finger movement. Wrist and the entire forearm movement is also important. I'm referring to the scales.
Kazuki, I get the idea what the author is talking about now. Well, I won't go against what he said. Simply because if I close my eyes, I won't tell the difference. So whatever works for him. But if he tries to speed that scale up a 3-4x playing demsemiquavers, I don't think he'll be able to maintain the legato. Simply because quick thumb under will be faster than moving the entire hand to the new position. And with a complex phrase, I can foresee limitations. But again, whatever works...
Now we need piano_ex to come in again...where are you piano_ex?
