This is why Chinese martial arts are dying. This type of teaching/training is like a cancer to our wu gung.
It is bias to think that the art of war is just for killing people. It is not to kill people, it is to kill evil. It is a strategem to give life to many people by killing the evil of one person.

You ever have to spar with a chick and she like goes all out trying to take your head off, and you hold back because she's a girl, and you end up looking bad for having agreed to spar with her in the first place?.....
I was on the metro earlier, deep in meditation, when a ruffian came over and started causing trouble. He started pushing me with his bag, steadily increasing the force until it became very annoying. When I turned to him, before I could ask him to stop, he immediately started hurling abuse like a scoundrel. I performed a basic chin na - carotid artery strike combination and sent him to sleep. The rest of my journey was very peaceful, and passersby hailed me as a hero - Warrior Man
As far as my research and understanding goes, most martial arts taught nowadays in Hong Kong (where I assume this is held? if not Guangdong) is of EXTREMELY SUBSTANDARD QUALITY.
I am just honored to be so fortunate that my Sifu, whom I respect very much, lives in my area.
Yuan Fen is a strange thing, isn't it? For years I've dedicated most of my time to training in the martial arts and it seems that fate has placed me in the path of a teacher who has finally opened his doors to me, teaching me as far as my dedication can go.

No stances, no "body work" to generate ging, no "sink-swallow-float-spit", no shaping of the hands for different strikes......

They BOTH did everything that one could possibly do wrong in a fight, even more so a " short hand fight".
But they also did what we so far to often:
They over extended their hands, they tried to work they "jing" at the end and NOT the beginning as I mentioned before, they kept their chins up and even moved their head back because they were reluctant to get hit, which ironically is why they got hit more often than not.
The did not enter on the angle or even up the middle by "slapped" the moment they made contact with the each others "bridges", which didn't work because they were over extend to begin with.
The lacked intent, and while the hands had some speed, they sacrificed power for the speed, HOPEFULLY because it was only a demo exhibition.
In short, they showed all that a short hand fighter should NOT do.

Praise be my Lord my Rock,
He trains my hands for war, my fingers for battle !
