I've seen his video clip and he is way way offbase. In it he said that the reason that Homer taught the right forearm takeaway was to not to cock the right wrist... no mention of the onplane functions of the primary lever assembly having to move upwards against the vertical plane of the hinge action (the thing that isn't a metaphor, but defines specific left arm planes). He mentions pivot centers for each, which is a myth that he has created. It is not about what powers what - it is about being onplane or offplane. To be onplane like Tiger Woods, Phil Mickelson...etc, that right forearm has to lift the primary lever assembly via the secondary hinge.

It is NOT that weird thing he was doing when demonstrating. Brian is a GSED, and he answered a question based on golfing machine terminology and then got it so wrong...
