That's not the poor sequence's fault (after all, it's an inanimate abstract
object) - it's the teacher's ;). If you haven't taught flexibility in
tempi, step length or alerted anyone to rotational degrees of freedom,
I don't think the absence of the D8CB and its replacement with something
else is going to change anything at milongas.

I can still vividly remember a milonga full of beginners from rabid
D8CB-hating classes that would not do a backstep (fine) but would
still march on to ram their followers into anyone in their way on
their unstoppable forward march; you don't have eyes in the back,
but if you aren't using the ones in your front either, it doesn't make
that much of a difference.
