Third squats look ridiculous to me, JMO.

True, but you can shift the stress between the adductor/abductors based on your foot positioning. I spose that is why people think they are shifting it across the quad.

Here is a good bit of advice I like to use. If you can go ass to the floor, go ass to the floor. The more you use a full range of motion, the longer you will keep a full range of motion. People do not lose flexibility because of some age-related physiology issue, they lose it from lack of use.
