Of the Long list of theories that TGM brings to bear on the Golf Stroke World, none makes more sense than the idea that the shorter the stroke, the fewer the Accumulators.
  1. Basic Motion: #4 Accumulator
  2. Acquired Motion: #4,#3
  3. Total Motion: #4,#2,#3

This concept is not simply about Power Regulation. It's about freeing the Hands for finesse control. Why would I want to Cock the Wrists if it isn't absolutely necessary? The #4 Accumulator can supply Power for chip shots of any length and, in addition, club selection can increase the chip shot range to fifty yards and Hinging (Vert, Hor, Ang) makes available optional Ball carry and roll characteristics.

The "Primary Lever Only Stroke" allows your Hands Ultimate Control over the "Line of Compression" for Impact.
You've lost me I'm sorry Daryl. No wrist cock - your original post talked about uncocking the wrists and I noted that I get that effect by lining the shaft along my left hand's lifeline - my left wrist becomes fully uncocked.

My only power motion is that my hips turn which turns my torso which move my arms which moves the club. I think that's #4 accumulator?

It's my fault Weetbix.

Not only do I make mistakes, I'm Vapid.

I still like the Traditional Grip with an Uncocked Left Wrist. I don't think it's the perfect Textbook solution like your procedure but it does lock the Primary Lever by preventing the Left Wrist from moving.

Daryl,

I have been enjoying the same method in my basic motion practice sessions. I haven't discussed it because it didn't seem "text book" but it works very well for me. As Paul Hart says you cant bend your left wrist while it is uncocked. Just a little extra insurance. Glad to hear others employ the same strategy.

Kevin
