Yoda, thank you for your response

I still see the c7 as the pivot center but rather then turning around the whole spine like a bottle rocket I see the spine as a pendulum with the weight being at the base, just about 2 inches deep of the belly button. and the c7 as being the pivot point This will keep the head much more still so to speak, and in some swings may actually have it move a little forward in the backswing,. In the compound pivot the first thing to happen in the swing is the weight shift to the right/rear, which keeps the c7 in the same spot but moves the base/bottom of the spine. IN the bottle rocket pivot it turns the backswing into a pivot where it becomes a door on three hinges so to speak, then in the downswing you have to go from three hinges to the c7 pivot center.. In the compound, which looks very similar to the pivot you are talking about, the swing center and ONLY pivot point is established on the back swing and maintained on the downswing. IN the barn door/bottle rocket you have to change during swing which seems like more work. I understand the debate you mention and I no longer like to argue about the golfswing but rather discuss, too many other things in life to raise my blood pressure.
here is a picture/illustration

so why do I ask these questions and bring them here?
because since the pivot proffered here is close or the same to the pivot I want to try, the compound, I want to figure out how I can shift my weight back in the back swing as my first move, lagging club head takeaway, without reverse pivoting or swaying
