Great questions Greg. I look forward to the answers.

A lot of non TGM teachers preach that to obtain a flat left wrist, you must do it with the pivot. In this case the student has flattened his left wrist while at the same time using zero pivot exactly as Mr. Kelley suggested. I have to believe when he moves to acquired motion with the addition of a little shoulder turn, he will have an even easier time maintaining these alignments.

I need to quit cheating and zero out my pivot for basic motion. If this gent can do it...
