Good point.  As a follower, it would feel awkward to me if the 1 wasn't marked 
in some way, whether it was a step, suspension, freeze, or something.  I don't 
think Martin or Jay meant to ignore it altogether.  So I can see a purposeful 
hold on 1 and a step on the syncopa to emphasize the syncopa.  However, I'm not 
particularly inspired by that small segment of Gustavo & Giselle.  I'm not 
hearing it the same way they are.
