. . . I was wondering whether it is disadvantageous to allow the right wrist to bend back fully by the end of the backswing - thereby altering the angular relationship between the right forearm and the left arm flying wedge?

The Left Wrist is the Master Wrist, and ideally, dictates any movement (Horizontal, Perpendicular or Rotational) of the Right. The
Bent Right Wrist at Impact, then, is the complement of the
Flat Left Wrist, and this relationship is established no later than the Top.
Any undue
Bend (Horizontal Motion) in the Right Wrist will produce a corresponding
Arch in the Left. While a "small amount is advisable and useful . . . as amplification of the Clubhead Lag" (4-A-3), any exaggeration will disrupt the precision alignments of the Flying Wedges and, hence, the entire Power Package Assembly.
