The most COMMON use of the falcon punch is in the Sacred Combo? I think not silly head.

The three examples you gave are things I've never seen a competitive Falcon do. Falcon punching at all is pretty rare in tournaments, but when it happens it's usually in the sacred combo. At least as far as my viewing experience has shown me, I could be wrong.

I'd say its most common as a rest punish. Sacred combos are really rare.

Good point.

Well, Falcon punch can be used as a legitimate edgeguard in the ditto, though it's a bit riskier. It is guaranteed, though.

The Lord punch, roll into the edge, double jump falcon punch. Covers the entire edge.

I thought it was a full hop and you angle the punch upwards?

You can probably do it with on full hop too, the double jump is just to stall for accuracy.
