I have problem with that too. A student who made of straw won't make his teacher look good. One time I demonstrated shoulder throw on one of my students who had black belt in Aikido. He was so used to "cooperate" with his instructor's demo, when I used shoulder throw on him, he jumped up and tried to make my demo look good. Actually he just made my demo looked so fake and I told him after that.
I have seen many TCMA books and clips that only explain how to do it without mention "why (application)". It bothers me big time. Why should I learn something if I don't know "why I need to learn it"? This kind of thinking that you only care about "how" and not care about "why" will bring TCMA away from reality.
