OK

Well you can extend partially commited weapons and somwetimes even fully commited ones as strikes to guage what type of fighter the opponent is or how he will specifically respond. You can extend strikes to then pattern him using the aquired information.

(Oh yeah and you can just go hit somebody for rights and wrongs as well as principles and honar)

But sertiously. Relative to my initial comment.. Strategy in terms of patterning and assessing opponents is a very neglected element in many individuals methods. And this does not only apply to ring fighting it applies many times in altercations as well. The time is just more condensed.

Oh and don't they like strike children for being bad in religions and stuff? Or strike women for sassing back?
