Did you follow it up with,"... if the arms/elbows are moving faster than the body during pivoting, it's an intentional foul?"

If moving as the same speed as the body still intentional by the POE unless your state says otherwise

b. Examples of illegal contact above the shoulders and resulting penalties.
1. Contact with a stationary elbow may be incidental or a common foul.
2. An elbow in movement but not excessive should be an intentional foul.
3. A moving elbow that is excessive can be either an intentional foul or flagrant personal foul.
