Release point
The rule does not mean that the release point is below the hip (SP) it only means that the delivery must come from below the hip.
The release point for FP is lower because the pitcher is pushing the ball foward/flat as fast as they can. For SP the release point is higher because the ball is released in an upward direction to get that minimum 6 foot arch.
Delivery for both games must be from below the hip and the release points are different.
