Hi Becky, John and all,

     I think it is slightly more complex.
Have a look at the young dancer here
https://youtu.be/sFVToeQdCPY?t=385
She does not look awkward and the flow is good.

Although the dancers are moving to the person on their
right's spot, they are not turning to the right since they balance forwards
and back first.  The young dancer steps forward with her right foot as
she starts the anti clockwise spin.

A lot has to do with convention and familiarity.

Consider a right and left thru. Which is more natural
following by Circle Left or Circle Right?

Cheers, Bill
