does or doesn't a good weightshift hitter rotate on a stationary axis? If he does, does that make it a rotational swing? Should the answers to both questions be YES, then what's a linear swing, but a poorly (delivered or conceived)attempt at either hip- driven rotational, or frontleg-weightshift method.

The difference is that forward movement has to stop as rotation begins. If you're drifting forward during rotation, you're bleeding power out of your swing.
