So, is it possible to have too much shoulder turn on the backswing, even with a good pivot?
The purpose of the shoulder turn on the backstroke is to position the right shoulder on plane.
Therefore, if one is swinging on a Turning Shoulder Plane ala Colin Montgomerie and turns his shoulders to a degree more suitable for a Turned Shoulder Plane, then yes, it is possible to have too much turn on the backstroke.

I believe so, if the "lag" can not be sustained coming down. The more room for acceleration, the tougher to "sustain the lag".

"Sustain (Yang/陽) the lag (Yin/陰)" is "the unification of Ying and Yang" (陰陽合一).
The "LAW" creates the "effect", which is the "motion" or "feel", with the "cause", which is the "intent" or "command".
"Lag" is the secret of golf, passion is the secret of life.
Think as a golfer, execute like a robot.
Rotate, twist, spin, turn. Bend the shaft.

Correct...
Just some food for thought - in a 100 meter dash, when does the runner reach top speed?
Per 6-C-2-D: "Over-Acceleration is the menace that stalks all Lag and Drag. Here it allows the Hands to reach maximum speed before reaching Impact and so dissipates the Lag. So the LENGTH of the Stroke and the amount of Thrust should be adjusted and balanced to produce a "High Thrust - Low Speed" Impact - "heavy" rather than "quick". Daintiness is dangerous."
