Uh...yeah. Personally, I think it was a waste to put more unneeded explanation into the origins of the Jedi Order. When I watch Mace Windu, I know that he's just out there kicking droid ass and taking names, not perfecting his Juyo style. In addition, there is no way in hell anyone will ever convince me that the CGI manipulation of Yoda to do backflips and ridiculous moves can be attributed to the fact that he is proficient in his Otaru form. It's a CGI spectacle, a chance to show off the latest effects. That's it. I consider all lightsaber combat the same, whether it's someone just learning, or someone like Yoda who's practiced for centuries. The lightsaber is an "elegant" weapon.
