So is it the lead arm goes up, so the barrel goes down. Opposite equal effect. Or is it the barrel goes down so the lead arm goes up.

Is that it? The barrel goes down, so the lead elbow/arm works up.

Barry Bonds liked to talk about the bat being an extension of his front arm. I like that thought.

Look back to some of the old FFS posts concerning the torso. The back plays an important role in my opinion. As does the core.

Yes the barrel is an extension of the lead arm. Unlike my swing where my lead arm is collapsing.

Lead arm is the result of the barrel being whipped "down to" from a leveraged position...
