Throttle Sync - Who uses it? It is easier to dock boat without it?

For me, pivoting works best when throttles are in sync using no wake mode. I tried splitting them and discovered minimal movement.
 
Maybe this is due to the keel design but in my '16 Limited the boat does not pivot when I have one in forward and one in reverse. I may try again this weekend but I have tried and the boat barely moves. Has anybody else in the newer boats been able to get their boat to pivot by having one engine in reverse and the other in forward?
Sometimes if conditions are right, you can pivot by keeping steady in neutral and turning the steering wheel towards the way you want to go
 
I use it. Love it.
