I keep tellin' ya. An-gu-lar mo-men-tum. Bones, links, chain, quanta -- units of h-bar/2. The principles involved are precisely aligned. Wave --continuity, particle -- discontinuity. In yo ho. Classically, Berkeley defined angular momentum relative to the inertial frame of the fixed stars to reconcile Newtons inadmissible "absolute space" to the reality of relative measure.

Aikido principles simply allow one to redefine, at will, the relative inertial frame initially selected by the attacker, without altering the energy in the system thus defined -- thus the energy either spirals into a hole or out into next to nothingness. Ma-ai is the macro-equivalent of quantized energy, physically constrained by the links of the bodies in operation, simultaneously continuous and discontinuous, and thus either mode of connection can be selected at any time if one begins to perceive the fundamental reality of the interaction. 天 理. Angular momentum is the physical principle that ties ALL that together. The old man knew EXACTLY what he was talking physically, put in his own terms.
