If I can add what is the best way to address an overbent left leg at impact?

The reason you can't sustain the lag is because you are so eager to make the club move fast (a reaction to the intent of "hitting it far"). So on a full shot you throw it away too early, which doesn't happen for your short chip. (bts)
I was taught that you should not "lock out"the left leg until after follow through.
Regarding an overbent left leg,IMO as long as you start from a good address position -and don't bend it any further i don't think you can have it overbent.
would be interested to here other views on this one.

I think it would be quite awkward not to bend the left leg more during the backswing than it is at address.

I remember Tiger saying one time that when he wants more power he snaps his left knee back.
It seems like a lot of the guys who hit it long have a straight left leg through impact. So what's up with that? Kenetic Chain Reaction or something???

Lag is an out-of-line trailing condition . . . lagging components are seeking to be in-line . . . maximum radius is obtained by swinging from the FEET . . . NOT the knees.
