There is no reason (without the gi choke) for someone to put their free arm anywhere near where you'd need it.
This was my concern as well, under what circumstances would their arm be that close? I mean I can imagine some scenarios off of a failed zombie, where you might able to regress from New York, to overhook control, to the iron hook but most people will have their elbow locked to your hip trying to kill your guard.
