I've only ever heard the Cadillac position referred to in 3-man, and it's when the Center is opposite the table. I would hear veteran officials talk about trying to be in the Cadillac position for last second shots. Don't know the reasoning other than maybe than wanting the C to have last shot responsibilities.

Though the former NFHS Officials Manual said nothing regarding running backwards (the new one hasn't arrived yet), one of the NCAA manuals stipulates this:
1. As soon as a new possession by the defensive team is imminent, the T official must move quickly toward the opposite endline and become the new L. 2. The new L must look back over her/his shoulder and observe the status of the game clock, 30-second clock, the ball and players as the play comes toward the new L. 3. When the ball is coming down the L and T side of the court, the L assumes the wide-angle position 4. When the ball is coming down the middle of the court or on the C side of the court, the L assumes the close-down position to receive the play. The bolded part of #2 precludes running backwards.
