That's normal and healthy, and it's old school for pitchers to rely on heaters until they develop more before learning new pitches. It protects their arm more in the long term. Too many coaches abuse young pitchers these days like a rented mule to win games (teaching them these pitches too early), killing their long-term careers.

A curve ball isn't just an “off-speed” pitch. The pitcher is twisting their elbow in an unnatural way throwing St high speeds. You clearly know nothing of developmental physiology.
