Andrew's Notes: 

John Danaher's Systemization, debates that what has been used in parlance as the Head and Arm Guillotine is actually a Seated Kata-Gatame (Head and Arm Triangle). 

I would contest the attempt at differentiating Guillotines as a Strangulation branch of their own  is frivolous. The conclusions I've drawn over years of training, education, and attempts to classify submissions, has led me to the wisdom, that the only common thread linking the group of techniques called Guillotines together, is that they are done from the Front Headlock/Overhead position. 

I do classify the Head and Arm  Variant Guillotine in the Arm Trapped Category, because the Arm is used as a means of constriction. This differs from the Arm Trapped Out variant, where the arm is not used in the Submission, but rather to eliminate Uke's counters.  I've categorized The Arm Trapped Out Guillotine in the Neck Folding Category, where I believe the most reliably effective instance is achieved, this correlates to the Peruvian Neck Tie, which effectively starts as a Darce (another Arm Trapped Submission), but due to the finishing wedge configuration of the leg overhead, forces the Neck to Fold, thus having less or nothing to do with the trapped arm.
