I know that you advocate this as the 'standard' grip because it allows better connection for latteral leads, but I'm struggling to find any examples of moves that would benifit from better latteral guidance:
Take a simple turn/return; since the lady should be following her hand, the subtle latteral element that the fore finger could be used for is over-ridden by the 'leverage' element in the connection used to raise the hand.
The only example I can come up with is leading the lady in a 'hip-sway' style walk.
