Even in your examples, there is a visual component that reinforces the physical lead. For example, to create compression (lets say in a sugar push) you move your body towards the other person, after which both bodies will move away from each other. As a follower, the fact that there is a body in the way, perhaps moving towards you, acts as a strong visual reinforcement that to keep moving in the same directon is no longer an option.
Other examples are similar but more complicated. Again, I'm not saying that this is the lead, but the fact that with a body lead the physical sensation is reinforced by space that either opens up or closes in, means there is a visual aspect, and part of what makes body leading more elegant and unified than pushing and pulling with your arms.
