Here's an opinion from a follower (and leader) who has danced with lots of men
and women, in BsAs and elsewhere, and had lots of tango moments:

I like open, and have danced plenty on stage and off, and plenty in BsAs. I
prefer close embrace. That's the only way I have ever gotten a Tango Moment.

If you use your fingers to lead me in anything, you will only reluctantly get
another dance.

No, you do not always need to move to lead front ochos. You need a flexible
follower, as well as a good lead.

I recently was asked by a follower who mostly dances open, stagey style tango
what the heck I meant by a Tango Moment. She'd never had one. I guess 
that says
most of it.
