What I don't understand about the milongueros who don't dance to music with vocals, does this mean they only dance to music they recognize? Is it possible to know all of the hundreds (1000s?) of danceable, golden-age selections to know which ones contain vocals, or do they have to sit out a lot, or at least for the first song in a tanda to make sure it's an instrumental, and then hope the rest of the tanda is instrumental as well. It's not even enough to just recognize the song, but you would have to know which version is being played, as I believe there exist vocal and non-vocal versions of some songs. Or is it easier than I think to recognize an instrumental right away? I admit I've never really thought about this, maybe I should test my skill at it.
