Note: For a given rate of angular displacement, velocity produced from the pendulum effect increases by the square of the radius. In other words, increasing the radius of the hand-path by 10 %, increases the angular velocity of the bat-head by 20 %.

False. Velocity is proportional to the radius, not radius squared.
