Why are circular riot shields held like this when holding them in the centre would allow for greater movement?

nice clean shot to the brachial artery
explosive shrapnel would love to work its wat to the femoral artery
no neck stabilization

c'mon even a statist pig like yourself should know better.

Their used as part of a line, stability when locked together is more important than maneuverability and anyway it doesn't really impact the ability to move it that much, you can still move it well enough to block with
