8. Fencing is the sport of poking someone before being poked and its modern display is typically devoid of the humility, respect and sportsmanship in kendo.

That's a cliché and is as false as saying that showing respect to your teacher in kendo means never bother him with questions. I tried fencing for three months, and that's enough to say that you're wrong. Preferring kendo to fencing as I do does not mean that fencing is a "reiho-less" sport.
