So do you suggest I pull the trigger as I described... taking up "slack" or I guess you could say "staging" then doing your main trigger squeeze through the 2nd "main" stage?
Generally speaking, the goal should be to smoothly pull through the entire trigger travel until the gun fires.

When extreme precision is the goal it's acceptable to stage the trigger, but it can create some issues if it becomes a habit.

They suggested left hand shooting just because you are left eye dominate?
When you get down to the nitty gritty of shooting, both hands have pretty important jobs to do. It's reasonably easy to make the case that there's not enough of a difference in the dexterity required to create a disadvantage by teaching a right hander to shoot left-handed if he's left-eye dominant. It's very different from forcing a left-hander to learn to write right-handed. On the other hand, teaching someone to shoot cross-dominant will mean a lifetime of trying to compensate for the issue with less than ideal shooting positions.
