Throw Tech Standing vs Throw Tech Crouching

Is it true if you tech a throw while standing you will have a bigger window to tech it than you would if you were crouching? I remember one of Vesperarcade’s tutorials mentioning this, but i can’t find anything on the SRK forums talking about this, so i was wondering if this is true.

SSFIVAE: How do i deal with throws?

Long, technical post ahead: To understand the answers to some of your questions about throws, you need to have a rough idea of how invincibility works in this game. Simply put, there are 3 types of invincibility - hit, throw and projectile. A (part of a) move can have any of those attributes, or none of them. This also applies to character states (eg. grounded vs aerial). Just because part of a move is invincible to hits, it doesn’t mean it’s invincible to throws (or projectiles) and vice versa…
