Extra question re fingering techniques in general

OK you pro's ... time to 'fess up now ... how long will this skill take, huh?

... anyone out there actually physically able to do this minimalist technique on the pinky keys, where you hover the pinky about 2mm and "simply" rollover onto C, C#, Eb instead of sliding?
Ditto, rotation & rollover left Eb, B, Bb instead of sliding?
... um, you do have to lift up for LHF's ... don't you?

Hoboy, can't get it at all myself, although on some really-really good days right pinky makes a teeny bit of progress, but mostly I'm still sliding around ... and on the left mostly lifting and plonking

... sigh, hoboy! ... practice-practice-practice, how many years will this take?
... um ... do i have enough time left on my life-line to learn this one?!
