I tentatively agree... although how wide your grip is definitely affects which muscle is doing most of the work (very wide grip involves much more of your lat and etc)

I personally think the "muscle turning to fat" is the funniest one. I can't tell you how many prior lifters (now fatties) have told me that. "Nah, I quit working out and it all turned to fat". Then they look confused when I say "Nah, you quit working out but kept eating the same amount of food"
I have this argument with my brother in law all the time. I tell him your muscles may shrink and get covered by a layer of fat, just like your abs, but he insists it changes to fat, I think he does it to piss me off
