Many things in medical school they teach is outright not advisable to do in real life. Nobody in real life performs full cardiac examination like exam standard. For various reasons.
If you really need a proper cardiac assessment (would be in hospital) please send the patient for Echocardiography and Stress test rather than debate about anterior touch xmm chest auscultate on skin vs through clothes.
