"philosophy" might be one of the ways 'they' went or go about choosing or developing the training methods.
You're taking the view of philosophy equals pedagogy. I do not entirely disagree.
There are at least 2 arts that begin with what you already do and maximise that rather than reinvent the wheel each time...Koo SD and that Sikh art that uses the Panthra. I suppose maybe police/military arts do the same.
So what's being argued? Are those any less 'arts' than ones which demand you change every aspect of yourself? No- we're just arguing pedagogy here...
