Essentially, it protects the arm from ripping out of its socket. This is apparent while analyzing the anatomy – the muscles attach close to the shoulder joint.

Critical messages they had to be said twice.
Re the balance, I've fallen into the bad habit of taking my videos from the side and overusing the barbell over the midfoot as the be all end all for balance. Is there a side on visual cue that indicates the balance of the overall barbell+lifter balance or should I be using the feeling of being in the midfoot through the rep as the guide?
