Well, it isn't just one man's word, but rather the word of pretty much all the pioneers who I have spoken to on the subject unanimously stating to me that General Choi's karate skill was low, perhaps the level of a green belt, that all his Taekwondo ranks were honorary, mainly and primarily because his actual skill level was low or even non-existent, but he did try to help the art. Hence, the Honorary rank and title. The bottom line is that his ranks, including the rank he requested from GM Son but denied, were honorary, and there is nothing you can argue to change that.
Hey, if you say so. Of course it's not like you've adopted the bias of the people who were upset with Gen. Choi because of his heavy handedness in trying to control the unification pricess or anything :lol: That's your prerogative, of course.
Pax,
