Hitting and Swinging are alternative Loading Actions.
The Right Shoulder is Part of the Pivot. Although the Right Shoulder is not an Accumulator, it is a massive source of Power. Accumulators are out-of-Line conditions that add mechanical advantage while moving from an Out-of-Line state to to their In-Line state.
The #1 Accumulator adds mechanical advantage to the Pivot because while the Right Elbow Straighten 6 inches, it causes the Clubhead to move 24 inches. It has the same effect as a "Pulley". A Pulley is a form of Mechanical Advantage.
Power Package Accumulators add mechanical advantage to the Power generated by the Pivot.
The #1 Accumulator may be the sole source of Power for Short Shots.
Yes, the right shoulder is part of the pivot, but since it is braced in the Hit, it isn't spun. If it were, #4 would be one of the Hitting Accumulators, but it is not.

The Right Shoulder does "Backstop" the Thrust from the #1 Accumulator but that does not mean that the Right Shoulder stops moving. Additionally, the Right Shoulder can produce significant Speed and backed by the Power of the Pivot.
Zero out the Pivot and Zero out the mechanical advantage of accumulator #1 by holding the Clubhead in your right hand. How far can you hit the ball?

6-B-1-0 THE FIRST POWER ACCUMULATOR is the Bent Right Arm – the Hitter’s (7-19) Muscle Power Accumulator. Even though the Right Bicep is active per 7-3, the Backstroke (8-5) is always made with the Right Arm striving to remain straight. But the straight Left Arm restrains this continuous Extensor Action of the right triceps with and effortless Checkrein Action. Consequently, during Release (7-24) the Right Arm can straighten only as the Left Arm moves away from the Right Shoulder. This results in a smooth, even Thrust for acceleration of the Lever Assemblies (6-A) from an otherwise unruly force. Active or Passive, the straightening Right Elbow with its Paddle wheel Action, powers, guides, and regulates the #3 Accumulator Motion (7-1 but not the actual Clubface aligning (1-F). Study 2-M, 7-11 and Components 19.
6-B-1-A MAXIMUM POWER is produced by adjusting the Hand speed to permit maximum Thrust through Impact before maximum extension is reached.
6-B-1-B ZERO ACCUMULATION is possible only when Accumulator #4 alone actuates the Primary Lever Assembly.
6-B-1-C MAXIMUM TRIGGER DELAY is gained by causing the Right Elbow to “Pass the Ball’ – which is the Line-of-Sight-to-the-Ball- before Release. Study 2-N, 3-F-7, 7-8 and 10-14.
Read 6-B-1-B, 10 times. So, there are degrees of use.
Homer seems to be saying that the #1 Accumulator does not move the Left Arm. He says that the Right Arm can Only Straighten when the Left Arm Moves away from the Right Shoulder.
Lastly, note that "Paddle-Wheel" Action, is mainly an attribute of the Right Elbow.
Notes for further discussion: Extensor Action is a Below Plane force. It does not move the Primary Lever.

That's correct - the right shoulder does move, but it does not spin and that's the big difference between Hitting and Swinging. It moves because the right triceps pushes both the left shoulder and left arm, which are inert. If the right shoulder acts as a backstop and the left arm and shoulder are inert, just how else could the left arm/shoulder be driven out?
Yes it can, but only when Swinging or 4-barrel Hitting.
Not so far, because you don't have anything to Hit against!
Homer doesn't seem to be saying that to me, because it wouldn't make sense.

If the moderator will allow us to move this to my "Learning and ...with a disability, " that might make sense.
