Morihei Ueshiba, Budo and Kamae

It seems that from a foot positioning and general posture the kamae from Shioda to Shirata is basically the same. Odd considering Shioda said they "figured it out" when students weren't getting it. It would seem this came from Ueshiba, though "figured it out" could be another way of saying "I remembered something sensei used to have us do".
