Very experienced persons will see the wing chun- others may miss
the connections.
Correct, again. However, if they train Wing Chun, they better at least try to use it. If you abandon what you train in a fight, including your structure, you are handing away a great advantage to your opponent. Wing Chun isn't fighting, but if I had to fight, I would use Wing Chun.
Same in some action sports--in boxing practice there is a difference between a true jab and a hook...but depending on the nature of the closing the difference may be blurred to the observer though the good boxer would know what he had thrown and the good coach would know.
Good example if they know boxing.
Most people in a fight dont have a clue as to what they are watching... be it boxing, wrestling etc
We see examples of that often in discussions of video clips.
