I think John's referring to the fact that the string and your arm can't occupy the same space... so the eye/sight/string line points at the target, while the shoulder/arm line is offset from it. It took me a moment to twig...
That's getting into deep water - I would be more inclined to go for the bow arm pointing at the target with the eye-sight line marginally left of centre. (string picture to bow side of sight pin) Very small angles whichever.

I think John is refering to the draw arm scapula moving back and the bow arm scapula going forward resulting in line through the "back" of the scapulae pointing to the right of the target (RH archer) while the shoulders and bow arm point at the target.
