So does it mean that Hoi Jong's are unlikely to have a basis to consider a form Choy Lee Fut?
The Hoi Jong's are how one can identify what branch of CLF is doing the Choy Lee Fut. Each lineage has one we call an earmark. Lau Bun his his, Lee Koon Hung has His, Chan Yong Fa has his, buk sing clf has theirs. as CLF people we know what to look for to know if something is CLF or no. For example, that sword form you posted is not CLF but is a 5 family style under Wong Ark Yuey, who is NOT choy lee fut. But all southern Styles share some of the same techniques or concepts as before there was southern kung fu, there was northern style.
Again, as CLF practitioners, we know what is CLF and what is not based on the form itself.

All of CLF do NOT share the same HOI JONG. Does that mean it's not CLF? NO. It means each branch of CLF has elements that are exclusive to each branch, but not shared amongst non choy lee fut schools.
Another example is the bow. different styles of southern kung fu that have a triad connection, will share the 3 pointed bow because of them paying respects to the mother society. but still each style is different, and may perform the 3 pointed bow differently from one another as well.
Does having a HOI JONG in CLF mean Chan Family CLF can share the Fut San Hung Sing Hoi Jong or the Buk Sing Hoi Jong or vice versa? NOT AT ALL. they or we would be called "BITERS" or taking something that isn't ours and using it as ours.
