Pivot: Hip Action
The Pivot has a Sequence in Swings using a Straight Line Delivery Path.
  1. Left Heel lowering: Accelerates the Right Shoulder
  2. Sit-down: Accelerates the Arms/Hands (Power Package)
  3. Hip Action: Accelerates (Drives) the Hands through Release and Impact.

You can't say that CF just does it. Put a free swinging arm on a wheel and keep spinning the wheel at a fixed speed - the arm will never catch up. It will only catch up if you decelarate the wheel. This is pretty basic physics.
When your hands approach release, they change direction; from down to forward, which induces throw-out.

Yes, you're missing stuff.
