on the journey
I prefer to think what you described as:
1. Holding the bat from extending radially due to centripetal force applied as the torso turns
2. Allowing the rotational acceleration to extend the bat radially
3. Reducing the turning radius of the hands so the barrel accelerates rotationally
I like the concept of a sling swinging slowly around my head and then swinging it with a smaller hand movement to accelerate the rotation. The hand movements are both rotational but the faster one travels in a smaller circle. You might define the final movement as "whipping" the sling
Ok?

Tyring to clean up my quotes for Pattar
I had planned to question a couple points but at this point, it's not worth it. As another poster commented, multiple people can look at one video and see completely different things. Bat angels, feet, torso, night and day. So it's hard to get points across in an environment like that.
The only reason i started commenting and asking questions was because many of the things suggested on this board led my DD down the wrong path. Do this but but overbake. Do this but don't overcoach. People say spend time on the hitting forum for a long time, try things yourself, read, learn, etc. However, holy crap, it pulls you so many ways and because most comments were ambiguous at best, it was never very clear. I was trying to put what i thought was clarity on the things that confused the hell out of me.
Like the hitting hall of shame, there are a few in there that i now think are good. Just used in the correct way. I am not one to drill and drill and drill. Why can't it just be done the right way from the beginning. And the model swings, there isn't one that anyone would commit to would be their ideal swing, because it was a change up, or they were fooled, or it was cold out....
I dont claim to know anything, but spending so much time on the site learning pitching, i was hoping to get the hitting down as well. A long tough road, but i think my DD will be in a better place. And i think it was more due to failing miserably at everything on this hitting forum, vs gleaning anything helpful.
Don't get me wrong, it's fun being a keyboard jockey, but i am tired. And i know no one asked me to contribute, so that's my own burden. But, good luck to all. I hope everyone's DD's are super successful and that they have fun doing it.
I'm heading back to the pitching forum. later.
