The main furls on a shaft inside the mast by rotating counterclockwise, so it is much easier to furl and unfurl with the boom a bit to port.

Instead of using clutches to try to control the continuous line during deployment, put the continuous line a turn or two around the winch when you get the sail where you want it close the clutches cinch up the continuous line take it off the winch and put the mainsheet on the winch and trim it in.

So it sounds like Seldon's reefing technique is to completely unfurl the sail, then reef (furl back in) as desired. Interesting. I can count on one hand the number of times in the past year I've wanted/needed to reef from the onset. So, it's not a burning concern but more of a nusense event.
