It is my experience. It might be the construction of the sling too, since my retention cord is kind of stiff. But it comes down to less twisting of the retention cord during release. You can see how my wrist is oriented, and I get a nice clean rifled release. If you go and watch my 1 hour challenge video, I have a similar orientation of the wrist at the moment of release, but often the pouch is oriented strangely, causing it to spin like a top on release. I attribute this to a floppier release cord and a single finger loop. 2 seems to help keep the cord from twisting as much. Just empirical and anecdotal evidence, nothing concrete to back it up.
Brain storming here but as a kid we use to play battle tops.

Kids would put their tops in the circle and you would try and smash one out of the circle with your top while still keeping it spinning after the hit. The trick was to hold the top upside down then flip your wrist mid throw so the tip would aim for the ground. This would give you accuracy and create top spin. Seems to me if I was aiming the tip of the top at a target instead of the ground it would fly with rifle spin.... Guess what I am saying is you need to think of the ammo having a tip even though it does not and aiming that part at the target.
