I beg to differ...buzz/crushed whatever you wanna call it can come from fast doubles. That's how they were originally conceived in the 40's and 50's. Multiple bounced rolls became more prominent later on.

And I stress snapping the wrists back as far as possible at the beginning drumming stages. It helps the students concentrating on working their wrists more than coming from the arms or fingers. Using very little force tends to make for less control at first. With experience comes touch...

There is no such thing as "a buzz double stroke roll" - there are double stroke open roll rudiments and then there are multiple bounce roll rudiments i.e. buzz - two very different things - a buzz roll doesnt come from a fast double stroke role, a buzz roll is its own rudiment which is learnt by starting slowly! - secondly "snap the wrist up with as much force as possible" ?? You are supposed to be bringing your body into alignment with the laws of physics and using as little force as possible
