I was just talking to a coach who was saying my elbows should be raised higher facing the roof when I’m doing this . I was doing them how you show in the video
How high elbows go in a clean high-pull is dependent on mobility to a large degree - you do want to try to pull them up as much as possible, not back, but not many people have enough internal rotation ROM to get them in a position similar to a snatch high-pull. Mine are especially limited because of a massive shoulder surgery on that left side a few years ago.

I often fail to extend my legs fully in the clean - would this be the best drill to help with that or is there a more appropriate one? Thanks!
Why do people usually do snatch grip high pulls and not these
To improve their snatch?
Because the snatch requires more speed and bar elevation, so it's a more relevant exercise.
