"Hips need to clear. Hips should lead shoulders. Hips need to move to shift weight. I cannot see how these 3 factors could lead to closed hips at impact."
Watch Tomasello's first video clip and you'll find a different opinion.
Dictionarily I assume "clear" would mean to pass by without interference. So for these two parts of the anatomy to prevent a collision I understand that the right elbow would"clear" the right hip. Since the right hip cannot passby anything the only part left then is for the elbow to pass by the right hip even if be minutely so.
Try 7-14 and 7-15.
ANYONE??

My point is, like you, I could not reconcile the hips being closed at impact - except for specialty shots- with what TGM teaches. Not saying Tommy is wrong - I am just not on the same page. I am fairly certain, while we are talking about alignment golf and not position golf, that with the three aforementioned points in my post would result in the hips at the least square at impact - particularly if the planeline is traced throughout the stroke.
If anyone else can shed some light, I am all for it.
Hips slide parallel to the intended delivery path...crossline for hitting, and parallel to the plane line for swinging, all while maintaining a stationary head (thus creating of axis tilt and its subsequent avoidance of "roundhousing' or right hip collision.
And if I may, even if it's off topic... PANTHERS RULE!!!!!
