I believe it. It’s like the open handed slap also physically lifts you up and displaces you completely vs a punch which just turns out the lights. You’re awake for the entire slap and the subsequent transport to another reality. Mom slaps carry generational momentum with them.

In France for a while closed-fist punching was illegal, so open hand slapping was the best way to knock someone out. An MMA coach once told me an open-handed slap with a slight cup in your palm to someone's temple could do just as much damage as a punch (the air getting trapped in your hand on the way in and the transfer of force once it hits their head i guess is enough to fuck em up).
This also led to the development of savate as a martial art.
anecdotal, but i always thought that was interesting.
