Is your objection just the shape of the spiral, or are there other changes you'd make to the loaf?

At the moment just the shape of the spiral. I watched a number of YouTube videos on making this style of bread and thought I had it nailed ... but not quite.  I changed the way I did it from my previous attempt. First of all I was careful to cover the whole rectangle of dough. Then I gently pressed the smear and the raisins into the dough with my palms.  I then tried for a tighter roll.  Not sure what more I could do to get that circular, more evenly distributed swirl.
