Yes,
tobell, and that's the problem: The Rotated Shoulder Turn mandates the Shiftless Hip Turn. And no Hip Slide means no Weight Shift (and low Power) and no Axis Tilt. And no Axis Tilt means no On Plane Right Shoulder in the Downstroke (unless the Waist Bend is exactly right) and, also, no possibility of any of the Straight Line Delivery Paths.
Now, a
Rotated Shoulder Turn
Backstroke can be
replaced by an
On Plane Shoulder Turn
Downstroke (complete with Hip Slide, Weight Shift, Axix Tilt and Line Delivery Path). But then, it is no longer a Rotated Shoulder Turn.
Bottom line for me is that I would have to see the revision in
Homer's own hand.
