That depends on how firm the hand holding is... if the gesture can be described as fidgety, then yes anxiety. If controlled, authority. Sometimes hand crossing can be seen as closed off and stern and this would depend on how tight or loose their arms are in that position... Context matters ... judge using other body language cues such as facial gestures...
The military does this. Arms cut away to your sides when you arent the ranking member in a conversation. You are told from very early on at basic NOT to talk to me with your hands. Then when you are getting a dressing down from a Commanding officer, they WILL be using their hands to express just how much you have indeed messed up.
Man I used to do that but realized it was because I'm nervous and didn't want to display that so try to stop it now you saying people see it as who is in charge
crossing or holding your own hands is also a display of anxiety

Best advice is be well researched in the message you’re presenting and let the content do the speaking.
It doesn't make any sense and I still don't know who is in charge
Right, neither do I
