Help with Yaz's "Space Count"?

How i learned thsi was:
Count the number of squares each opposing piece controls.
Compare hwo many squares each queen controls, then rooks, bishops, knights.

I get 10 - 6 in whites favour. White: Ng5 Ne5 Pe5 Pc5 Bd5 Bb5 Ba6 Qb5 Qb6 Qb7. Black: Nb4 Nc3 Nd3 Nf4 Bg4 Bh3.
Thank you very much for listing out the pieces and squares they control. I see now that l had neglected to count the queen's attack on the pawn @ b7, and the bishops attack on the knight @ d5
... so squares count even if they are occupied by enemy pieces.
Hi guys, l'm going through Yaz's Video Chess Mentor Series (an oldie but a goodie) and l have a question about one of the topics that appears early in the video series. Which is "Space Count".
In the following position, Yaz says that White has a +4 in the space count:

FEN: r1bq1rk1/ppp1nppp/8/3n4/2BP4/1Q3N2/PP1N1PPP/R4RK1 w KQkq - 0 1
How is he coming up with this +4 count for white?
Earlier in the video he states that Space Count is measured by the # of squares in your opponent's side of the board that your pieces and pawns control/have influence over.
So by my count white pieces reach out to a total of: 8 squares on the black side of the board while black's pieces reach out to a total of 6 squares on the white side of the board -- therefore it's a +2 space count for white not +4 ... What am l missing?
The only thing l can imagine is the Queen + Bishop battery attacking the Knight on d5, does that count as +2 for white in the space count; making the total space count +4?
