I don't really understand what you mean, with 'pull the opponent into you' - the way I understand rollback you pull them past you

How is that different from Tsai (Cai), "plucking"?

In the example of the jiu-jitsu stand up arm bar, which you and I both know wont work on a good taiji guy.
The forces are easily detectable and therefor effortlessly controlled. A S-Line is a snake. It has force, but the forces
can not be detected because the forces are dispersed and never in any one place until the break.

the standing jiu-jitsu lock will work on normal people. it's a good move if you want to stay off the ground, say at a bar when there's more
things happening. good move, should be taught.
