I disagree, someone with
just them things sorted out can easily fuck up in set - and not know why.
Methods provide a guideline why, where, how, etc and provide you with so much more that I won't waste time typing it up.
Nobody is perfect at 'pick up', at anything for that matter. Even the best natural you know can learn a lot from reading up on PUA.
As for the topic of this thread, sure, them things sorted out help make the mystery method better, but in my opinion, MM works best at the beginning stages of rAFC. Many tend to grow out of it since it poses some limits, and look back at MM as a stepping stone. I still use many aspects of MM, but more of the inner game portion. The M3 model was my first AHA! moment, and I probably would have given up on the idea of bettering myself had I not stumbled upon MM.
I've said it before and I'll say it again: Look at pickup through the eyes of Bruce Lee. He developed 'Jeet Kune Do' - A hybrid martial arts style which combines many of the best parts from other martial arts into his own style that works for him.
