  "Simple variation of a grounded cathode amplifier"
  I feel that is over simplified.
  Taking the output off the plate of the bottom tube or taking the output off the cathode of the top tube, the top tube is still acting as a high impedance plate load for the bottom tube. Kind of like a poor CCS.

  There's no push-pull action anyway unless the output is driving a very low impedance. If that's not the case, this circuit offers no benefit over a simple grounded cathode in most applications.
