Anyway, back to the original thread. How is Chin Na different from grappling styles found in MMA. This is not an MMA vs TMA thing, but I have seen MMA fights where they could have easily broken or dislocated limbs but due to MMA ettiquette, they slowed the application of force to gain a submission.
I have been around the block for too many decades and examined too many things to wait until something is proven false.

After time, one matures into a view of not taking anything for face value.

Proven has to be that from inquisition and not from ingenuous complacence.
