..... aim of 180 degrees hive body rotation .....  honey that was originally behind the brood is now in front of it, just behind the entrance.  Bees are now removing the honey and freeing up the space for queen to lay the eggs.

Are you saying that the bees move the honey from close to the entrance to distances further within the hive?  If so, has a reason for this activity been determined?
