For competitions, where timing (and ending on the beat) is important

Timing yes - but why is ending on the beat important in a competition?

I would expect it in a showcase, but not in freestyle. Every competition I've seen, the judges have made their mind up long before the end of the song. The only thing you can do at the end to influence them is to make a mistake - like literally dropping your partner.

They taught me some "filler" moves that add style but aren't a "stop" in the dance.

I like this idea, especially the changing tempo from a slow move to hitting a line.

I take it you learn a lot of drops in Australia...
