We need less mysticism and more verifiable scientific fact that works through the science of anatomy and physics. Not more "I studied animals for so-and-so years, so I am proficient at martial arts." If that were the case, most biologist would be world class fighters as well.
Hey, don't bag biologists! I spent a year studying Biology (namely Anatomy, Hunter-Prey interactions and Physioloy) in order to improve my martial arts knowledge.
