If the left wrist cocks up during the backswing along a curved path (which I will label a curved left wrist cock plane) that is dicated by the rate of rotation of the straight left arm during the backswing, wouldn't the clubshaft also be on that curved plane if the left wrist remains flat during the entire left wrist upcocking phenomenon?

Jeff,
I don't know about a curved plane. I was just looking at the simple example of a plate of glass swing plane and the sequenced release of the left wrist uncocking on the downswing- while it would uncock in line with the left wrist alignment which let's assume isn't on the clubshaft plane- that fact doesn't mean that the clubshaft would be thrown off the intended clubshaft plane.
Your additional comments may have validity and be great to look into but they are outside of the principle that I was describing. Post on though if you can further describe your thought process on this line- I'm not saying they are not valid - I am just saying that they aren't needed in regards to my post i.e. regardless of a flat plane or curved plane- the left wrist could be uncocking in one plane while the clubshaft is moving in another plane- they don't both have to mirror one another- unless there are no offsetting vectors/ joint motions.
I would only have one basic question or comment regarding your post at this time. When you use the term upcocking- that's a term that breaks out to mean - "up"= backswing? and cocking=cocking? or is there something more to the term "upcocking"?
