Really really, there's only two pigs on the pole. And yet, delta power, though at a
lower rating than transformer nameplate (vs. if you had three).

Indeed. This is not corner-grounded delta. Once
you figure out open
delta, look at dog-leg.
I did some brief reading on open delta and now think that it requires
three lines, independent of ground. So I fail to see how open delta
would be any benefit save for a simpler transformer (fewer coils) or
fewer transformers. It seems as if you would have the same line and
insulator cost as more common (closed) delta.
