Learned the pinch way back in the '70's, but now use thumbs and pinch. The transmitters were smaller and certainly had much less of everything for way more $ than the great stuff available now. Since returning to the hobby a few years ago, I started using the thumbs to push the sticks to extremes since my hands are on the small side. Have found thumbs more comfortable for inverted.

Gents with or without a strap/tx tray it does not matter
longer sticks set so your fingers are comfortable

Linear movement, more precise inputs, smmmooooth flying-helis or planks
"yank n bank" is for thumbs (pardon the pun)
