Excellent theory as to why Aang wanted Korra to see him energybending. I too agree that I am satisfied with not know how Yakone could do it in broad daylight. I think Sokka's speech was the writers way of letting us know how Yakone could do it. Essentially with much practice and dedication to the dark art, it could be reinvented and perfected. The bloodbending in Legend of Korra is much more advance than the one performed by Hama. The bender could levitate the victim, something that was not seen in ATLA. Obviously Yakone spent time mastering it. It's this desire to perfect the art and to innovate it that probably led Yakone to being able to do it without the full moon.
