What is the point of it?
Is it to impress non-practitioner friends that they are "real martial artists"? ...I mean... surely they *know* how bad they are? Or do they?
Unfortunately, I think most of them don't know how bad they are; they think they are doing something well, or at least not badly. When you're self-taught by reading books and watching movies, or taught by some else who did the same, there is no legitimate standard of expertise with which to compare yourself.
