This is correct as I understand it. The advantage of a S shaped arm over a straight arm is a matter of lateral balance. A straight arm has a tendency to want to rotate on the tubes axis toward the outside, while a S arm corrects this, but at the expense of more mass and more material, thus greater chance of structural resonance.
