When I was young this was taught in Germany as seoi-otoshi (hybrid of Seoi-nage and tai-otoshi), which is wrong by Kodokan naming but it is what it is.

seoi otoshi is not a SN tai otoshi hybrid if you try to do that it's not the same mechanics, seoi otoshi emphasizes on changing levels when you drop under them hence "otoshi" meaning drop

That's why I say it's wrong. But that's how it used to be taught here like 20 years ago.
