Isn't this how everyone scans rocks?

I've seen a lot of discussion about scanning misery with regards to mining. I get it, its a bit tedious. But people keep talking about how you have to decipher numbers. I know each mineral type has specific number values but...

Do we not all just P I N G, ping, scan?

Broad ping, pick an unknown, tighten focus ping again, so the single unknown resolves into individual rocks, then narrow focus scan? The mineral type displays and you can decide if you want to move closer.

I mean, scanning still needs some work, you can see in the video I wasn't lined up good enough and the pings decayed before I could finish the scan but still.

Isn't this how youre supposed to do it? Or everyone knows this but its too slow?
