doubleouch,
Like your post, like your point of view, and I like SBG (educated guess)
In fairness, Mr Thompson was a very good martial artist before he went on the door, I don't doubt that his door ability gave him the reality of combat, but just to give credit where credit is due.
Anyway, genuine question for you: Training in what I would refer to as Combat Athletics, in an alive way, is an excellent foundation for self-protection without a lot of the BS street hocus pocus. However, take someone like my mother, or my cousin who has disabilities, and they want to learn self-protection and cannot get on the mat or in the ring. How would you approach the instruction of such an individual?
Interested in your thoughts.
