There is certainly a gray area regarding the legality of this trigger, the judging could definitely go either way.

Where is the grey area? Your finger must exert and release a force on the trigger in order for it to go backwards and forwards. There is nothing grey there in my eyes. Your finger just does this as it goes past the trigger nub, not by going forwards and backwards.

As the finger comes up to the contact point it starts exerting the force, and then as it moves past it, it's releasing the force.

At CalJam, Bill told me that a trigger pull and release must be relatively the same angle. This did not rule out walking or fanning the trigger, just the rubbing method. He was very specific about this.

cranks, bumps, nubs, or rollers

What's the difference between:

For an advantage in firepower, whether achieved via nub rubbing, roller triggers, or hand cranking, you're still circumventing the spirit and intention of "pulling the trigger".

...and with that said, I'll take two!

I've heard from refs at tournaments to use the rule 1 pull+1 release=1 shot and with the technique of "nub rubbin'" or "stroking" that would give 2 shots or more, at least as I understand it.
On the other hand one could interpret the rule as you have done in which it would be only 1 shot. This is what I would consider the gray area.
