Hawks' -- In general, I agree with you, except that a hand out in front is never legal guarding position, so the defender is automatically not "well-positioned." Hands and arms are only legal if they are straight up. I'm not saying I call anything that involves touching with hands and arms out front, but I don't think "well-positioned" is possible with hands not up, unless there's no contact.
