I'm glad I asked
. I find your thinking interesting, and it contains logic, but just foreign to my own thinking. I just consider "hammer on" or "pull off" as descriptive technical terms describing
techniques regardless of where or why they're used. Also, I've seen them written into tablature a great deal, not so much in standard notation, for both guitar and mandolin. I use those techniques extensively for different purposes. Some is purely for the feel, some is for convenience (as with playing triplets while maintaining a nice right hand groove).
