I agree with you, but as I said we do train groundfighting, it's one of the five fighting distances we are training. But we don't train grappling, we train against it, anti-grappling or whatever they are calling it. I for one wouldn't like to, for example, put a triangle choke or armbar bar on the attacker. What can I do from thoose positions? Choke him until he faints or die? Break his arm? Wait for the police to arrive if there are others "spectators" who might have called? Watch when the attackers possible friends kick me? Wait until the attacker take out a possible hidden weapon? Wait until he claps on the ground so you will release him? I would rather get up if I can, if not, attack him as fast as possible with everything I have, elbows - knees, and then get out of there when the first oppurtunity arrives.
