What could be less contrived and more natural than the way a child chooses to do something?
Check out this video. The young girl shoots pretty good with a sidearm stroke that hinges entirely at the elbow. No gravity involved, either, so we can rule out that nonsensical argument of yours about pendulum strokes being strictly gravity driven. She's using just a pure contraction of the biceps - leading to a crisp closure of the elbow joint - and her cue action looks pretty freaking straight to me.

This little girl already shoots great with what seems to be her natural (uncontrived) stroke. I wonder if she even went anywhere with this game?
