However, in Yodas Luke's demonstration, the hosel was staying on the elbow plane during i) and ii), which fits in with my theory. Surely, the hosel cannot only rotate away/to from the sweetspot plane at one swing phase-point - point iii) - and not at the other two swing phase-points, if the hosel was operating in accordance with Homer's theory?

Jeff.

Jeff,

You don't swing the hosel.

You swing the Clubhead. More specifically, the Clubhead's Sweetspot.

Period.

Stop wasting everybody's time. Your talents are better applied elsewhere.

Give this one a rest.
