artIt ' s a Martial Art , to practice the art you have to maintain the connection to fighting I don ' t think that there ' s even a distinction or you ' re doing something else . <| sep |> Okay , let me take it point by point . By the way , picking small individual phrases from a larger argument doesn ' t help having a useful discussion . 1 . Fair point . You don ' t empathize with that , but wait you ' re not the victim maybe that ' s a harsh word here either . I guess we ' re in different worlds , an analogy would be that you ' re a valedictorian and some of us are the back benchers . 2 . Passive voice hiding the researcher . Ok I can buy that . Not sure if active voice would hurt the scientific explanation though . Passive voice specifically isn ' t the main problem though , I was just giving an example . 3 . Exaggerating . well , yeah I ' ll agree with you . I realize how what I consider extrapolating could sound like exaggeration to others . 4 . Don ' t take it too literally . I was ranting sorry about that . 5 . That particular sentence was a continuation of a bigger argument about the culture of people trying to sound more sophisticated . I stand by my words on that one .
