Unless the animal is still alive and they're letting it get some rest,
I believe this stretches the meaning of {Qot} past reasonable limits.
The "recline" meaning gives me the impression that it shouldn't apply
to something inanimate. I consider the verb to be almost the opposite
of {Hu'}.

I'm going to have to concentrate to stop thinking of "puppet" as a
valid translation of {Duy}.

(This seemed a very natural description of events. It was only on my
second reading, looking for typos, that I considered that it might
have been a way to avoid having to describe the hand motion.)
