Only, if you hit what you're aiming for.

So hitting my braking point, or the apex, turn in or correct exit line is wrong ?
Think you have chosen the wrong words. To be fixated is to be focused on one point which is were you will arrive, be it a tree a wall hedge etc. Observations and focal vision is better for the twisty roads
So if your target is the 'vanishing point' and you fixate on it as you ride on twisty roads you are doing something wrong? It moves, sure but your should be focused on it fairly acutely.
The vanishing point does not move.
You move in relation to the corner.
The limit point moves, only, in relation to the positioning and speed of approach.
If, as an example you stop at the kerb does the limit point move ?
No, it is stationary.
It is all relative however.
The point is to use all information available to your best advantage.
I often ask these questions.
Why, do you take cornering position ?
To enable the vehicle to be better balanced and for better visibility.
Why ?
So that you can see the hazard earlier.
Why ?
So that you can respond to it.
Far to often I see advanced motorcyclists taking cornering position, but not then using the information, to their best advantage.
Sadly, some think that having "passed" any advanced test taken, this is an end in itself.
It is only the beginning of the journey, which have many routes, but one destination.
A safer rider.
