Since our upper body rotates around the spine, I would think that it plays a larger role in the low point of the swing (as opposed to the left shoulder socket).
The Left Shoulder is the Center of the Arm Swing (Zone #2). The Head (or, as may be preferered, the 'point between the shoulders') is the Center of the Body Pivot (Zone #1).

They are different.
