I agree.
Survival type of fighting is just that.
Still, you can't take away what sport fighting has to offer, not in terms of tactics per se, but in terms of operating in a real-time, spontaneous environment with as much power as you can handle (without dying or being permanently injured).
The gongfu grappling book sounds like a great idea.
