Two handed bowling is no different. It lets guys who aren’t physically strong enough to do it with one hand to use their second hand to help generate power

Translation: "2 handed bowling = more power, but I'm ironically upset at people using a superior method."

When it comes to athletic motion, the bigger and stronger muscle groups you can engage and efficiently utilize, the more power you can create.  Period.
2 handed bowling, is the superior method because whether anyone likes it or not, the laws of the universe dictate so.  The measurements and calculations of energy transfer and pre-determined.  Until a new way of delivery finds a way to create a higher peak energy transfer, then 1 handed will always be the sub-optimal way to bowl.

Yes, you can overcome raw power with technique and still be competitive, because bowling is more than just energy transfer, you also have to transfer that energy at a specific point, angle, launch, and repeat it consistently. much of which before the ball touches the lane.  The problem is, when a 2 hander (such as Belmonte) has just as much technique AND more power, then his advantage is undeniable.

Analogy:
Keenan Allen is regarded as the best route runner in the NFL.  His technique is flawless and that's how he does what he does so well, with accuracy, technique, skill etc.
DK Metcalf however, is pure, raw, unadulterated strength, speed, and power.

2 completely different ways to accomplish the same goal in the same sport.  Metcalf can learn and develop technique, but Keenan Allen can NOT learn to be taller, faster, stronger.

This is why the NFL has consistently gotten bigger, stronger, and faster at every single position for decades.  Because if you can turn a physical freak into a technically sound player, they will almost always prevail over someone who is just technically sound.

Belmote is both.
Many 2 handers (especially in THS leagues) are just exploiting power to mask their lack of technique/accuracy/consistency.
Many 1 handers, are just exploiting accuracy and technique to mask their lack of power.

Again, 2 different methods to obtain the same goal.  But if a 2 hander can develop the same amount of technique, accuracy, and consistency, COMBINED with more power... they will be the superior bowler.
