First of all this is my OPINION which is what you requested. The Grandmaster of the system claims he was made Grandmaster at 25 years old. There are at least 32 "Masters" of the system in one photograph. All those things are what a good friend of mine calls Bullshit Flags. That being said if you like it, who cares what the rest us think?

Now for a little tongue in cheek commentary on the nature of opinions.

It is MY judgment based on MY knowledge and MY personal experience. It is what I believe, and it is my right to say it out loud, however and where I please. I do NOT have to make you feel comfortable about it, I do NOT have to make sure that your feelings are not hurt, and I definitely do not have to respect YOUR opinion. The fact that I have an opinion means that I consider all beliefs that differ from mine to be inferior. It means that I know more about the topic than you do, that my life has equipped me with better ideas than yours has equipped you. It means that when it comes to the things about which we disagree I am smarter, more honorable, more morally right, more courageous than you.

It means that I am right and you are just Fucking Wrong.
