If I'm understanding it correctly, the pool noodle acts as a torque limiter. When it contacts a ball, it grabs it and squeezes it under itself. At that point, the torque overcomes the the friction holding the pool noodle on the shaft and it slips. Since it's no longer spinning, they can't accidentally capture another ball.
Do I have that right?
