What I am basically getting at is that the movements that make up the art only have basis in other things. Their uniqueness is what makes them useful (i.e. it is hard to hit someone if they are moving around in a way you don't understand). Likewise it is also their uniqueness that makes them interesting and fun. Surely you cannot be against someone pursuing an avenue of general interest and intrigue...
A uniqueness to moving, per hard to hit someone may seem a good thing. But, the discussion of a style done by a drunk would seem to be only unique to THAT individual. And such his performance was only DONE drunk. And what is the "fun" of that.

There are flaws to myths and legends and to pursue a interest and intrique to such as to try and do, oer this particular is nonsense.
