Can chiral Brønsted acids fill in gaps between H-bonding catalysis and LA catalysis?

Are other modes of activation possible with chiral brønsted acids?

Acidity may be playing a role but aryl substituent on BINOL seems to have greatest impact

Still, N-triflyl phosphoramides do tend to activate carbonyls more efficiently than the analogous phosphoric acids

Based on DFT calculations, the hydrogen bonds lower the energy barrier in both the attack of the peroxide
