Is the active use of accumulator 1 the real distinction between hitter and swinger?? Surely that is just the choice of power package accululators and number of barrels - you can have 4 barrels in hit or swing .... so does that make the 4 barrel swinger the same as a 4 barrel hitter???
My take on the argument is that it is the loading action that distinguishes the hitter from the swinger - drive or drag load. 7-3 stuff...
Identifying the loading action and the nature of support of right forearm for secondary or primary lever... the location of pp3 when loaded ...is it quarter turned....
his right forearm is not in a swingers position when he loads the shaft IMO - the right forearm is 90 to left arm and shaft with pp3 behing the shaft - not quarter turned.
I think loading occurs when the shaft starts to bend... everthing else is sustaining or increasing load ( drag sustains lag pressure and drive increases lag pressure) ... these photos ( if in the context of full swing) are indeterminate... images of force sensation are almost impossible... got to see where right forearm is and work out where pp3 is in relation to the shaft bend onset... that is loading.... that is what seperates hit and swing.... hit or swing is about physics....direct quote from 7th edition...

7-19. LAG LOADING
This category recognizes the over-all control by the Clubhead Lag Pressure Point (6-C-2) and that manipulation of its Loading Procedure determines the Physics of both Hitting and Swinging (Preface). (Study 6-H-0, 7-3 and 7-20.)"
All the rest of the "supposed" hitting or swinging components are what makes the imperatives more likely to be maintained through impact... but the key distinction is lag loading... and you have to feel the difference to know it...photos are readily misinterpreted because they do not show the force sensations as readily as they are felt!
It looks like Cabrera loads the shaft with a hitters right forearm position IMO. DOes he have some components that are perhaps generally more compatible with swinging ...possibly .... but that right forearm looks loaded for hitting...

Is it?
I always thought it was whether your pulling or pushing, then ideally you want the right forearm in the right position to support that load.

Pushing or pulling is physics... these are Homer Kelley's words ( as per 7th edition and editing)... my italics /bold/underline....
