The Endless Belt Effect is all about increasing the Clubhead's Surface Speed with no increase in Hand Speed. To that end, there is only one Endless Belt and one 'Release' Pulley Wheel.
In fact, the golfer uses only about one-quarter of that Release Wheel (to Trigger the Release at the initial encounter). After Triggering (7-20; 7-23) and Full Extension (2-P), Acceleration has ceased and only Momentum is available to propel the Club into the Finish.
I'm afraid that when I really try to employ a snap release I feel like I get that release pulley located somewhere near the middle of my feet (that's the image I get from the idea of having the line-of-sight of the hands cover the left foot at release). Consequently it seems like there is not enough time to square the face and it's "fore right". I'm learning to release it sooner, but I think my attempt to sustain the lag often gets me dragging it too deep into the delivery path.
Is it possible, with automatic release, for CF to "betray" you and not release things in time to allow for a face that is aligned properly?

Comet,
A common misconception may be surfacing here:
The TGM motto -- "Sustain the Lag" (3-F-7-B) -- refers to Clubhead Lag (the stressed Clubshaft and #3 Pressure Point Pressure) . . . not to Accumulator Lag (specifically, the Cocked Left Wrist [#2 Accumulator] and Turned Left Hand [#3 Accumulator].
You 'Sustain the Lag' with both a one-inch Putt and a 300-yard Drive.

Hmm? I’m not a Party Pooper but please consider: 1-L
#8. No portion of the Lever Assembly can swing forward independently. (The Golfers Flail)
Only by Lever Extension (Travel Distance) is the Clubhead traveling at a greater velocity than the Hands. At Impact, the Hands and Clubhead are traveling at the same Speed and RPM. (I'm not yelling, the bold is for those hard of reading) (The Golfers Flail) Not Just at Impact. Please remember the Bent and Level Right Wrist and that the Golf Club moves in a circle.
Should the issue of “The Endless Belt” conclude:
How does one Increase Clubhead Speed? -Or- How does one Increase Hand Speed?
Does a Snap Release Increase Clubhead Speed or Hand Speed?

What does the phrase "to stir the pot" generally mean? And does it mean to be in some way deliberately provocative or irritating?
Deliberately provocative, yes, but not necessarily maliciously. Picture a pot of soup. A lot of ingredients have settled to the bottom, out of sight, until stirred. Metaphorically, a lot of issues can drop out of sight when nobody mentions them. One can "stir the pot" to bring issues to the surface, mostly to create awareness.
(Accumulator #2, believe it or not, may very well be Hand Velocity)
At Impact, the Hands and Clubhead are traveling at the same Speed and RPM.
I don't have any specific data available, but generally, through Impact, the Clubhead moves about five times as fast as the Hands. For example, a Clubhead Speed of 100 MPH means a Handspeed at 20 MPH.
So, at Impact -- assuming the 'In Line' Clubshaft and Left Arm (Rhythm per 6-B-3-0 and 2-G) -- the Hands and Clubhead are, indeed, traveling at the same RPM, but . . .
Would you agree that they have the same Angular Velocity?
Would you agree with the statement that: Only by Lever Extension (Travel Distance) is the Clubhead traveling at a greater velocity than the Hands; at impact. Remember that the "Golfers Flail" is held together with a 'Pin'.

These are Rhetorical Questions.
A humble Student.
Lever Extension is the whole deal . . . BUT you have to build your angular velocity (acceleration & momentum) with the start down . . . so you shorten the radius via getting your accumulators out of line . . . then you can really whip that short radius deal around building speed. The the speed is transferred out and the surface speed increases geometrically . . .
So, at Impact -- assuming the 'In Line' Clubshaft and Left Arm (Rhythm per 6-B-3-0 and 2-G) -- the Hands and Clubhead are, indeed, traveling at the same RPM, but . . .
Not at the same MPH (Surface Speed).
Master Yoda,
At impact has the #2 accumulator (clubhead velocity accumulator) reached its full inline condition or is that a post impact condition?
