In animation, and illustration as well, it's the exaggeration that takes the piece further. I mean, look at it this way, if everything were based off real life and handled as such, it'd be boring. Pro dancers (I wanted So You Think You Can Dance hurhur) have really trained their bodies to go extreme, and that is what makes it so wonderful to watch them practice their craft. Watching someone who can't dance doesn't make you feel the same way, except if their drunk.. but that's an exaggeration that goes in a complete different direction ;) Very valid points.

And good point with the dancer, it's fun to compare the pose of those two dancers :) This is what Arnar's wife tought us in the last semester of MMS. To act something and move ourselfs and exaggerate those moves. And then exaggerate some more, up to the point where it feels silly but looks fun ;) Nice animation and posing ponderings.
