Chris,
Is this only due to the scrape of the reed?
My teacher taught me to hold it slightly higher than 45' because he believed the reed to be more centrally positioned in the mouth, and having the elbows out resulted in a better hand position.
I'm not totally convinced though. We all have different mouths and arms, so surely it's a matter of 'whatever works best'?
