Another tidbit from OIswald's book, concerning front hand placement.
"When a forearm is too short for the length of the arm, it will not feel proportional with the grip. The hand will have to be moved back with the arm likely to feel cramped. That will change the balance of the gun and will hamper smooth and accurate swings to targets. When it is not right, the ability to swing smoothly will be hampered."
Again, listen to armchair experts, or listen to those who know what they're talking about due to real life experience, like Oswald. Digweed is an expert, in his style of shooting. But, he is a really big man, and his leverage on a gun by moving his hand fore and aft, is different from mine. Or, probably yours. Oswald addresses the needs of the average shooter.
