Secondly, I note that he doesn't fold his left elbow after the followthrough, and I thought that a standard finish swivel action requires more folding/bending of the left elbow. Is that assumption incorrect?

Jeff.
I agree - he seems to be executing hinge as a swivel action(radius and ulna) rather than a pivot or orbiting arms motion.... and I think that is why he does not fold the left arm as one might expect in swivel motion...maybe it would feel too closed for him after his hinge was a swivel motion...
