Any old dogs out there trying new tricks? Any younger generation masters swimmers swimming this way?

"In watching the Olympics, we can't help but notice the impact that "lopers" are having in freestyle. While high-rate freestylers and straight-arm freestylers have been getting the most attention this year for the speeds they've achieved, lopers are certainly making a HUGE impact."

seems to me like the lope is really an adjustment made for breathing.
two questions:
1) does anyone lope and alternate breathe?
2) would phelps do the lope if he were swimming with a snorkel?
loping is not something i practice, but i do fall into it naturally if i am swimming at race pace and breathing on one side.
