If there's a large gap between the lady's back and her elbow you hand may drag across her chest (especially if she's somewhat rubenesque) -- if you start on the shoulder you're fairly well guaranteed not to find yourself holding anything other than a hand when it finishes sliding down
There's another subtlety -- as the hand slides down her arm you can move it to catch the outside of her hand (ready to lead an inside turn) or to catch the inside of her hand (ready to lead an outside turn).
