Hi Seth, To be clear - that document appears to be a list of dances where using the role name isn't required, but still have swings, and thus, left and right hand roles. Yes?
I understood this thread was originally about dances where the role doesn't matter, i.e. it doesn't matter what side you wind up after the swing. Did I miss something?
