Thanks for the quote - it's very insightful - I had read about the emphasis on the big toe in Yoshinkan (but I had mistakenly taken it for the big toe in the front foot for stability.) I will have to experiment a little with this.

The big toe is extremely important for balance and movement in the human anatomy.
It is well worth trying to understand how it is used in Yoshinkan Aikido.

Go ahead, tread on me.
