How do you hold stylus?

It depends on the design of the stylus, i.e. its geometry. When tilting too much, the tip will lose contact to the tablet surface - a torn tip will make this even worse.

It doesn’t make much sense to hold the stylus at such a shallow angle for regular drawing anyway. Force is being detected only in axial* direction, so pressure control is pretty poor at such angles, and you need to press harder.

*) I’m not quite sure, but I think Wacom once had a pen that would react to radial force also. But that’s quite expensive to realise technically.
