If I lead them down the slot, I know I have to follow them or stop them. If I lead them to spin, I know where they can stop that spin. Whatever we're doing, I know when I can break or vary the movement and where it'd just knock them off balance. I don't have to remember different signals for each variation, because I can lead each variation as required (and I don't need to worry about whether my partner's learnt and remembers that particular signal for that particular move, either)
