I think the question still stands: what's the point of staying in the versionthat doesn't match your core beliefs vs finding an equivalent that does?

Can you name an equivalent of Kung fu?

I can’t — so I found it necessary to dig into the old program and port the concepts.

I would argue that more people should do that, even when they don’t immediately understand the old model well enough to port.

Both in software and martial arts.
