Tres Bien Rene.

I like -

"Forms aren’t useless, even if they are sometimes trained in a useless manner. Forms have a very specific function and, used as such, are one important tool on the road to attainment. Just make sure they’re moving you down that road as efficiently as possible."

You use the Kung Fu, the Kung Fu doesn't use you :)

Purpose of Forms Training?
Hmmm, muscle memory. Like playing scales on a Piano, or Trumpet, etc. (You need to know when and where to place you fingers).
