Greeting Marvin,
I find so many things wrong with your questions that I don't have the desire to point them all out.
But, I will reply to one thing
marvin8 wrote:To effect an opponent, usually only one taiji push is required, not "repeatedly applied force."
I have found that in a fight
Sometimes one punch required
Sometimes more than one punch required
The same goes for Taiji
Sometimes you need one push
Sometimes you might need more than one push
Also, there might be a partial answer to your question here
Ponder this post from a respected member

I teach to the person
And, because I teach to the person
If I were, teaching you
I'd find out what's up with you and start from there
So…
Do You, Marvin, find Resonance a strange word?
If you do,
Okay, fine by me
Then, in teaching you, I wouldn't use the word Resonance as an example for you.
...
Lastly
Not only do seem to have missed the overall point of my first post
I am not certain you questioned me in good faith to learn, or start a cool dialogue or whatever
I get the feeling you came here to throw rocks
Meaning no matter what my answer
You will continue to throw rocks until one lands
I don’t know if for certain if that’s true, but...
Until my feelings about you changes
If you were to ask follow up questions,
there's a chance I may choose to not reply to them.
Not that I dislike you
It's just that the throwing rocks position has already been filled.
