That was my point. The paper bemoans the BS in "Traditional Martial Arts" but misses the point that they are no longer taught with the same level of intensity/seriousness/viciousness/ruthlessness that it was originally developed with.

But many of the ancient texts cover these principles quite well and are worth learning and interpreting in modern physiological/psychological terms.
