For discussion sake, we have 3 pressure points in the hands with 2 accumulators. If the hands can have 2, why would the pivot be classified as only 1 power source when there are multiple components and segments to the pivot itself?
Remember he defined the power package as the HANDS and ARMS . . the pivot power being transfered via #4 pressure point. He chose to restrict the power package to the hands and arms as defined in chapter 6. However, that doesn't reduce the importance of the pivot (or its individual components) and it doesn't somehow mean that he didn't "get" the pivot.

As far as the pivot stuff is concerned you know that you and I are on the same page . . . but I think Mr. Kelley would be on the same page as well. No question that he understood that "power" is in the pivot via the individual lagging/out-of-line to in-line components . . . but the Power Package he defined as the arms hands and club. But I think it is a mistake to think that Mr. Kelley saw the pivot as "one power source" . . . he understood the components and their relationship to produce the largest radius via the segments going from out of line to in line from the feet up. Was the description incomplete . . . yes . . . but did that mean he didn't get it . . . no.
