I see that Larry specified that the woman is drawn to the men's side, 
and for that shoulder-waist hold is great.

Nowadays I encounter choreographies where the gent is drawn to the 
ladies' side, and for that the gent's arm being at the lady's shoulder 
is a problem (because the just-swung lady is now trying to draw back the 
other ent and the just-swung gent's arm is in the way).  It's not a 
*big* problem, but it adds more friction to the move.
