What do you think?

I agree.
Just as the Finish Swivel provides the bridge between the end of the Follow-Through (Both Arms Straight position / 8-11) and the Finish (8-12), so does the Backstroke Swivel (Standard Wrist Action / 10-18-A) provide the bridge between the
end of the Start Up (8-4) and the Backstroke (8-5).
In both cases, the Left Wrist rotates -- Swivels -- from its Vertical condition to On Plane. Into the Backstroke, that rotation is 'palm down' to the Plane. Into the Finish, it is 'palm up.'
