"... while warbling at any speed has been easy for me..." I hate you. Just kidding. Good on you. But, to be serious for a moment, I think - code for I'm not sure - that some players are better at controlling their playing at a slower speed because they have cultivated a better sense of timing. That is one thing that I found sadly lacking in my playing, especially coming from a largely classical, and therefore mostly unsyncopated, background, as opposed to the blues, which is dependent on a good sense of groove as much as it is on anything else.

I normally move my head but am working on tongue blocking now where i'll move my tongue.
I am a GM player. I tried moving the harp by having my thumb push the side on it as well as an MB and that method just didn't seem to work for me.

When I play lip pursed I move the harmonica and when I tongue block I move my head. I think when I am playing through a bullet microphone it makes more sense for me to move my head, but now and again I will use my hands for assistance. It can also depend on the harmonica I am using and whether or not I am used to the size of the holes.
So in summary I think I move everything!
