If you wave, create, someone that gives you an implied responsibility - traditionally the only equivalent is 'parent', or maybe a judge who orders the transport of someone to another land.
Then there is the power relationship. 'Parent' traditionally has power over 'child'. But, 'doctor' has power over 'patient'. You wave someone, putting yourself in a position of power, then from another point of view you subordinate yourself to them.
