Interesting. Typically, there's a transition to more standard back control which opens up when an opponent attempt to sit up to grip fight: you can arm drag to the back. Having been in his class for the past 2 years, I would expect Danaher sees the back as a higher percentage finishing percentage and has the advantage of scoring points as well, whereas the crucifix is no points, and has more opportunities for the opponent to escape. The real gold in this video is seeing the intermediary of the crucifix as an option when losing the back, getting to the inside sankaku (saddle et cetera) and when an opponent is turtled for various reasons.
I've looked at in particular Yoshida's use of the crucifix and his back transitions from there at length in months previous, and the use of that body lock has its merits whether it's crab ride, from the top attacking the turtle and as an interesting from underneath as the opponent addresses your efforts to isolate a leg in order to attack.
