Please note that I said "sometimes called", not that C1 and C2 are official designations. Many people have started to use that, rather than to have to clarify "in C behind the 'x' shoulder".

What we now know is that he wasn't in D, which (D) was the reason people questioned the original post. While he was slightly out of position, he wasn't as far out as originally stated.
