Now, quoting 2-M-4: "...consider Pivot Thrust as Body Power blasting a Swinger's essentially inert Left Arm into orbit toward Impact, or as supplying the initial acceleration of the Hitter's loaded Power Package so the Clubhead can be endowed with Pivot speed PLUS Right Triceps Speed",
don't you think that, even if the Hitter doesn't whirl the clubhead, he feels the clubhead accelerating and feels CF as an incidence of the motion just created???

It's not me, it's physics: I think that hitting or swinging (different sources of power), the clubhead moves in an orbit around the shoulder hinge. And everything orbiting has Centrifugal Force.

Thus, we should feel that resulting CF while hitting, right?!

It would be nice if an accomplished 4 barrel hitter like TED could describe if he feels that (Luke, do you feel the (Centrifugal) Force? ).
Not physics- geometry. the clubhead still moves in a circle except the whole radius of the club is pushed. The clubhead is not whirled. Like beating a carpet on a clothes line instead of whirling a rock on a string. CF needs greater throw-out- a quick move from the start. A hitter plots his course. There is no CF in lower throw-out speeds. Muscle power only. A batering ram instead of a catapolt. CF is uncontrolable- you give up control to the forces of Newton. Hitters maintain control and push/drive the club to low point. Swingers live on the edge of throw-away. Their only control is propr mechanics of the gryo- right shoulder thrust.
