Draft without a sidebody

Hello! Long-time lurker, firs-time poster. Im wondering if there is a drafting system without the sidebody. I remember that Rory had a video as part of “The Making of a Coat” YouTube series in which he drafted a coat with two darts: one under the arm and one in the chest. Is this system written up anywhere? Thanks!

@Philip De Paola I've heard tailors argue that the seam of a side piece helps shape the material better at the sides, for a fitted look. Three-seamers/sack coats are usually a little roomier/boxier/more relaxed looking. Personally, I prefer that softer look.
