And cheers for resolving the mystery of the board trick
Every days a school day in the world of the Scaffolder

I am not defending this and have not done the calcs on it but the board on edge has a structural capacity so in principle this could work and in calculation may work.

I can remember designing dance floors made using splitheads or Acrow Treslegs with boards on edge supporting the deck - nothing wrong with that.
I don't think that I would cantilever boards off clips though!
