I think this pretty much describes the philosophy of JKD as well. Jesse R. Glover usually says about his Non-Classical Gung Fu that it is not a system - it is a process. In recent videotaped interview he explained this more closely: It is not a closed system, but a learning process that should make the practitioner find his own strong points and develop these.
This should also be the point in JKD whether you call it "concepts", "Jun Fan" or whatever.
