Don't think so. Some moves may very slightly from school to school, but probably 85-95% of the moves are the same.
Most of us don't worry that everyone is doing the exact same movement. We see the katas as training tools to learn balance, movement, individual techniques, and stances.
If one school is stepping back into a horse stance with a inward block, and another school is stepping back into a forward stance with a inward block, their both learning how to execute a stance and inward block.
No one spends a lot of time breaking down katas searching for the true or hidden meaning of the movement. Real fighting is a unpredictable ever changing combination of movements which cannot be duplicated in katas. Application is learned thru live freestyle armed and unarmed sparring.
Tf glad you are finding it to your liking keep us posted on your progress.
