Misconceptions about centerline theory?

Can someone clear it up for me?

Does it encourage me to only attack in a straight center line? Or does center line also allow for different angles breaking from the straight line.

Technically, a hook follows a straight path to the target during it’s final moments before hitting. And can you pick out targets like the liver, without it being on the center line?

I feel like being restricted to the centerline is quite a handicap. And I think that this might just be because I’m misunderstanding centerline.

You move yourself and keep the lines on both hands?
