I generally assume that when you're making the throw, the contact used is:
1) between what you established a grapple with and where you grappled
2) between what you parried with and where you parried
If there are options BEYOND this it opens a can of worms w/ establishing contact via contesting rolls.

Actually it seems like the new version DOES... but treats it as a feature where it doesn't affect the technique cost.

I'm not sure if that means you'd need to buy up the versions separately (Neck Sweep / Leg Sweep) or if it's still one technique for every variation...

With normally non-damaging attacks like grapples/trips/sweeps you don't need to worry about how hit location would affect wound multipliers, but with aura making any contact damaging, wound multipliers could matter for certain damage types.
