I completely agree. I do essentially the same thing. I use a tiny Surgicel (that’s the trade name – it’s oxidized cellulose) supported with cotton pledgets. I will try and send you some videos. I do not use ultrasonic aspirator or any intraoperative monitoring. Something like this may be quite difficult to accept in the US.
