肘不可架,亦不可夹。平肩易架,垂直易夹。 Elbow should not be Jia (in 4thtone) nor Jia (in 1st tone). When it is at shoulder level, it is easy to become Jia (in 4th tone, meaning rising), and it is easy to become Jia (in 1st tone, meaning squeeze) when it is vertically pointing to the ground.

To control/support the attack, the surface is the key. To strike the opponent, the point is the key. It is more so in push-hand.
