my “problem” is that nobody voted you as the thread topic police.
I explicitly stated in the first few words that I was going on a bit of a tangent. There wasn’t any “misinterpretation”. I just happened to have finished playing some ranked where I was using cr.lk dash throw like it was fucking magic. I included the reply because it made me think of it.
Here’s an actual Gouken updated… kind of we already knew this, but they may have changed the on hit advantage to make it viable and not a 1 frame link since you can’t plink it (technically).

Yang lost his Lk dp fadc option select. Gouken can now confirm jabs into palm lp (didnt get to test this during the loctest though)”
Try getting close and jabbing until your jab can’t hit anymore… it might vary 1-2 hits on certain characters and if they are crouching vs. standing b/c it will make the hit boxes diff, but that will give you a good idea of how it should work.
I believe it’s just a matter of the moving hurtbox of his reeling animation.
It is, btw, completely possible to get two cr.lps to chain against him. I can’t tell if it’s just a tighter chain or if it’s “random”.
edit:
doing it in training just now, I was able to to get 3 cr.lps to chain against him reliably by hitting the chain as late as possible. so ya, it’s a matter of his crouching reeling animation being too low until the last frame or 2 of it.
stand crouch stand crouch should get you the most jabs…i can string 5 together, off a dj mp you get 7 hits easy w stand crouch technique…
we can tatsu him when crouching only when his hitbox is tallest during idle animation(breathing), i would assume this along with small hitbox creates issues.
