Wall isn’t present here, but same concept
Thank you. I was thinking of a different 'wall drill'.

At what point in the swing do you consider the back hip to be the axis of the swing's rotation?

Uncommitted ^^^^Gotta be weak D! LOL
Couple of questions:
Do you like Sierra's swing? Rate it on a scale 1 to 10.
"another is the arching of the rear lower back." When does this take place? Thoughts on hip extension, arch of lower back flattened in stance.
On teaching TTB first and foremost:
If you use long tee drill with the goal of hitting long line drives and hitter figures out how to hit/launch the ball into the air she will be TTB to some degree. I am surprised how many young hitters have trouble hitting line drives off a tee. With my DD we play a game similar to around the world in hoops. She has to hit line drives over 3rd then 5-6 hole and then over SS then up the middle and so forth. Roll over one or pop one up she can either take another try and risk going back to the first position (line drive over 3rd) or stay and give the other player(s) a chance to catch or pass her.
I think the axis is the back hip at the beginning and as the swing is initiated the axis shifts to the front hip. I don't think the back hip is the axis for the entire swing. Just the start as the hands are creating a axis for the barrel, the rear hip helps create this deep axis. As the front foot plant and the weight shift against the front leg the front hip becomes the axis of rotation, the axis shifts IMO.

Rotate both forearms in same direction to get the barrel moving behind you. Too much worry about 12-6 analogies. Start with bat against the back of your neck and snap it off your neck as fast as you can. If you rotate both forearms the knob will turn up/forward and the barrel will turn down/rearward. For RH hitter rotates forearms to the right. LH to the left. It's really that simple, but like any other movement you have to practice it to burn it in.
I'll add a 'twist' to this.
Arrive in your swing launch position with a healthy hand-set (e.g., knob directed towards the catcher's feet), use both forearms to aggressively get the lead-arm on plane as the torso-engine twitches/pulls ... i.e., you are seeking plane not simply to get on plane, but aggressively to gain barrel speed. That is what "short hands" is about.
