As he demonstrates the "1 to 2" move standing inside the plane board, it corresponds to Section 4 - Start Up of the Twelve Sections described in Chapter 8. However, the swivel part is generally only used by Swingers.
Right you are rwh. A few weeks ago when I visited the swamp I was hitting my normal volume of swampballs (400-500) while Yoda was giving a lesson. As I was admiring OBLeft's swing, Lynn walked up to me during a break and asked, "Hey Bagger, so are you hitting now?".
No says I. Still swinging.
He asked me to go to the top of my swing, adjusted my wrists into a correct position and said, "this is where you need to be". He's had me working on start up in the past but I had bigger issues to deal with at the time.
Later in the day I visited Steve Ferguson, GSEB who teaches along side Ted and Lynn. He had a shiny new HG Driver and I asked to take a few swings with it. I took one swing and he said, "hold on right there". He grabbed his camera and set me up for some video. He pointed out the same thing Lynn was seeing. My clubshaft was cross-line at the top and the clubface was closed to the sky.
Five minutes later Steve had me doing start-up swivel drills. He said, "Fan it, Fan it as hard as you can at startup, you can't fan it enough". Note to the reader, this is clubface fanning while tracing a straight planeline, not taking it inside at startup. It took me about 5 swings of hitting pushed right shots until we figured out that the lack of a start up swivel has created very little roll in my release. So once I started rolling everything came together.
Its amazing what that little start up motion does to every section of the swing. Over the years Lynn has taken me from stance, to pivot, to arms, and now to hands. The final missing pieces of my swing are finally coming together.

Great post and an important point that you've made. The swivel has nothing to do with arm movement other than a rotational movement of the forearms. A complete swivel can be made that moves the clubshaft parallel to the target line and parallel to the ground and opens the clubface 90° without ever moving the arms from their address position.

Great Post indeed, Gives detail to the simple one to two and avoids taking the club inside because it is tracing the plane line straight- not twisting the hands and clubhead. kudos to Steve too.

One of the best examples on tour - Anthony Kim.
A move very similar to Hogan in many ways.
I thought I was watching Jeff's pre-shot there for a minute!
