And if your dojo has such a tradition, that's great, but should you be calling it Aikido's tradition?

The traditions we have in our dojo, such as they are, weren't made up out of whole cloth. They evolved from what I was taught by Maruyama Sensei and from what I gleaned from the translated writings of O Sensei, Tohei Sensei and others. Since all those teachings and learned views were Aikido based then yes, I feel ok with saying those are Aikido traditions.
