ball facing out during the back swing

Dear All
I hope that you are all fine and well and wishing you the best always.
Kindly note that do to many hours of work and some health issues I was a bit away from my usual practice and also when I did practice I stayed to my routine so I did not do anything extra, but one thing that was bugging me at all times was that I was not able to read, study or search for bowling information as I would have done, But ...
during the past week I had time to download and see the PBA tournaments and something different caught my eye and I thought to share it and point it out with you wonderful people.
And that was that I noticed that most of the PBA players during the start of their back swing their ball is either partial or completely facing out , that does not mean that from the back view it is not aligned with their head, it means that the fingers are pointing to the outside of the body, now from my point of view they where trying to be behind the ball as much as possible, TJ, Chris Barnes, sean Rash, marshal kent they were all doing it and by doing this they are finished at C1 to C3 section of the release (in front of their shoe and not next to their ankle "Please correct me if I am wrong").
now I am a person that has a hard time to face the ball outwards during the swing as I crank the ball but the down swing is a different story from the down swing until release it is very possible to maintain the position as you turn from crank to crook also you keep in your mind that you are trying to throw back up, I think the result is awesome.
I thank you for your kind attention and looking forward for any comments.
Best regards
