Yeah, this is infuriating.
I did Karate for a decade, went to a number of tournaments, and I’m a giant gamer dork.
Yes, in combat sports, there are legitimate arguments one can make that defining some kind of category delineation based on bone/muscle density from your biology makes roughly as much sense as weight classes… though I can say that only time I have ever been actually, fully KO’d was from a woman, roughly the same age/weight as myself, landing a roundhouse kick directly on my temple (side of my head).
But… keyboard combat? No. Makes no fucking sense at all.
