Yoshimsu - Kincho stance

[Cannon Fodder]

Any mains or semi-regular Yoshi mains know about Kincho? I'm new to the series since Tekken 3 (and I was like...7 when I played it because "HA HA GON FUNNY").

I'm having a hard time finding where Kincho fits in, what it counters, and working out its crazy small timing window. Do most people just... set it aside and not bother with it?

I would probably suggest you look at youtube guides on yoshimitsu. also watch eyemusician.
Kincho is a primary stance, you will be using it for everything including combos, baits and mixup shenanigans.

You have multiple ways to entry into it and from it you have access to launchers, lows, moves that hit sidesteps and can go into kincho again or meditation, heat dash activation, transition to dragonfly, an unblockable and you can use flash while in that stance.

Its a powerful stance

Watch Tekken seven and changes to Tekken 8 for better understanding.
