The "Butterfly double half figure eight" is not a double half figure eight, though everyone is walking the path of a half figure eight. Here's the original text: "This is different than the double half figure 8 where the 2s cast off and follow the 1s, and not just because you're on the side of the set with your partner and thus doing your part of a 1/2 figure 8 with neighbor. In this move, everyone is going to do their part of a 1/2 figure 8 around abstract positions rather than people (because the people are all moving). The women go in first (propelled from the roll away they led), passing Right shoulders. After they clear the middle, the men go in passing left shoulder. Everyone should end up in the spot of their opposite gendered neighbor, having gone around the spot of their same gendered neighbor."
