Now, this is really fascinating.  Can you provide some
info on where I might dig to find more on this?  I
will go ahead and search Murata Makoto's message for
now.

There is some truth in this but I would like to see the
evidence of this line of thinking being used in practice.
I would also like to see if they are doing it for the
right reasons or not.

I do not mind wrong or appearing to be an upright arse
as long as things turn out right in the end.
