I don”Ēt think you have enough understanding to see the obvious differences between what she is describing and the other situation you brought up. Either that or you are choosing to ignore them. I also think you are just grasping at straws here and don”Ēt care to have a substantive discussion anyway. Sadly this is a common pattern on the internet when people can't come up with any more arguments to support their position yet still don't want to let go of it. So keep holding on to what you think you know. If you stay with the aikikai, you might do very well since there are a lot of other people just like you there.
