I think the possible lack in techinque stems from the modern day benders in TLOK don't bend for their lives. In A:TLA the nations were at war and the only benders were each nations armies. Their bending techniques in ATLA had to be perfect and so far advanced because it was essential for their nations survival. In TLOK bending is more of a hobby or literally a sport shown in Pro Bending because there is no war. To sum up the possible lack of technique is because bending is now a hobby not a tool of war.
