I saw Knopfler using these ideas in a So Far Away live vid.
Starting with the second chord you mention, this fingering is an A chord in the G shape. Theoretically you can add the A notes on the 1st and 6th strings but it’s not necessary.
You then move up to the A chord in the C shape, then the A chord in the A shape until you’re back to the G shape an octave above.

I don't see CAGED, 3nps, thinking in intervals (or whatever floats your boat) as being mutually exclusive. I play a lot of 3nps but still use CAGED as a fretboard roadmap/framework in helping visualise intervals on the fretboard. I just see 3nps as spanning across more than one CAGED zone on the fretboard.

i find them very useful in classical guitar reading/playing, where you have to go up the neck a lot, and we are playing chords and individual notes /runs at the same time. If I know I am say Eminor key, then if I am playing at the 7th fret, then I know quite easily what are the 5 main chord shapes in Eminor at that position and means i intuitively know where the right fingering will be for the runs/notes; and also if I then need to move up a position.
hence why I thought the poster in the OP seemed wrong in all aspects, as it seems to presume you need to be playing fast
Clearly, to some, CAGED is heaven and, to others, it's hell.
