I guess the easiest way to put this to rest: The hands control where the body goes, or else the Body controls where the hands go.
How bout the brain controls where the Hands go. And the brain controls where the Pivot goes in accordance with the requirements of the Hands. And they dont go the same way necessarily.
Come on, we humans can do this. I bet you can do a mean right arm pickup while you drink a beer and turn your body, say to change channels on your TV.

For me balance is the link...the brain moves arms so that forces are aligned (experienced in the hands) for the task...and your brain also makes sure your pivot is in an optimum position to apply the aligned force sensations and stay in balance...staying in balance is all force management.
The key to alignment is force sensation...
To some extent the right forearm move, for me, takes some priority away from force sensation (my brain struggles to prioritise 2 sensations)...but when done properly it allows you to feel the force in your hands.
The mechanics of right forearm alignment does mean that the shoulder turn seems to be automatic and has automatically converted me to a flat shoulder turn (from rotated)...as Daryl predicts I think.
