Just because I hate Japan doesn't mean bias in contents. It's a happy coincidence. Whether there is a bias or not is decided by logic (& specific fallacies), not whether I have hatred. Hence the phrase, happy coincidence. The same goes for me favoring some conclusions. If that happens to be true, happy coincidence. As for whether certain conclusions must be drawn from certain references or not is up to the logic.
Favoring conclusion is not a bias. It "can" create a bias. Bias is a simple matter of logic. Provide counter-evidences or counter-logic instead of claiming bias because of my obvious hatred to Japan (including half-Japanese or whatever). Bias is not provided by emotions but by logic. Can favor certain conclusions while those conclusions are still true anyway without any bias.
If there was no Dan system in Kung Fu, then what was the Gwonbeop which Mas Oyama learned? He became 1st Dan in his second year in middle school.
Sit up in boxing is specifically for taking hits. It's not specifically for boxing though. That's what I meant when I said Iron Palm isn't really like a regular Kung Fu. I don't care really. Let Iron Palm be a Kung Fu. What difference does it make? Let's say Karate's Breaking/Tameshiwari culture started by Iron Palm's Breaking culture. Now, as for the specific hand strike Mas Oyama taught, how is it? Rotating shoulder means your shoulder moves in to front when you are punching. So, when you punch, the shoulder on that side is moving to front. That creates bigger mass in motion, which results a bigger impact. Also, there is an extra strength & speed coming from shoulder to the fist on that side.
"There may very likely be a bias" is not a bias logically analyzed. It's a wish made.
