     I not only said walking in crossed feet, I also said
using three tracks (which is the "inline" of crossed feet,
and the automatic cross only occurs when outside partner).
As soon as you start to "keep your right foot to the left,"
as you put it, you are at that point outside partner.  You
yourself are even saying that you do that to "permit" the
cross.  Well yeah--because otherwise you'd be blocking it!  :)
