My trollish side wants to draw those funny lines of who is standing straight vs who is leaning in, since it favors me there.

But the funny thing is that he's like the most masculine and dominant person around, to such extent that he's super chill while doing so. He has a scar from a machete cut on his forearm. His extended family and friend group gravitates around him as their patriarch. He leans in here because pictures mean nothing to him. He has nothing to prove in pictures because he proves it in person instead. He leans because he knows leaning means nothing. That which is strong is flexible. The Laozi of leaning.
