I wonder if Takeda leaving Ueshiba crying in the corner helped Ueshiba develop Aikido as I understand it. Maybe this is where Ueshiba saw the futility of being the strongest. That there would always be someone stronger or bigger or that has a gun. That maybe what matters in the end is striving for connection and reconciliation. To me this is what makes Aikido different than Aiki. No right or wrong, just different.
