There is no desperation on my part. Maybe I should have used ANY karateka(and saying tat you could beat your old self, while clever is not an answer). The overall point is can a person fight. You say they cause a person react poorly (I said disctract but we are sying the same thing) and my point is the use of kata/forms impedes noones fighting ability. so again, do you think that all these years that people have been fighting with kata and form based MA, nonone could fight. And don't say "oh maybe there are some its is the exception" You are putting far too much emphasis of form/kata limiting or impeding one's ability to fight or defend themselves
