These are my OPINIONS on what Martino was up to here.
I didn't get into the Tri Tone thing wherein A melodic minor can be resolved to B Flat minor as the relative minor to D Flat Major 7. So when one plays the Lydian Dominant like Martino does starting on the D it can be resolved down a half step to D FLAT major 7 using the relative minor in his method. Tad Dameron uses turnarounds based on these Tri Tone subs...

One HAS TO DEFINE WHAT GOD THEY ARE ADDRESSING if one wants to get to TRUTH. If one addresses Yahweh as BIG G then one will have endless errors in their metaphysics usually addressed via intellectual contortionism....
