Yeah, that seems to be the case. It's a very TMA way of approaching it, and I don't doubt that it's probably Bas Rutten's influence in him.
It's very likely that the concept of being effective from both stances was introduced to Ludwig by Bas Rutten as this is a common practice in kyokushin karate. At my dojo, our sensei stresses using mostly powerful rear hand/leg strikes from both orthodox and southpaw and having either our left or right foot forward (depending on the direction) when moving laterally.
I wonder why this isn't a more common practice in boxing or muay thai. You're able to generate maximum power on nearly every strike you throw (aside from lead hand straights, hooks, and uppercuts) and its very difficult to be caught in a bad position when you can fight from both stances effectively. Any thoughts?
