Crucially, Jerónimo de Carranza, the Spanish master who established Verdadera Destreza, was working from Agrippa’s writings (according to a contemporary letter by one of Carranza’s students). So if there's any way to get around Thibault, it’s probably in the teachings that ultimately inspired him.

Gérard Thibault d’Anvers was a Dutch fencing master schooled in the Spanish style, Verdadera Destreza (“the true Art”). Verdadera emphasized a rounded, humanist education: a student was expected to study Classical authors, mathematics and philosophy alongside the blade.

Capo Ferro cemented this trend, eschewing sidestep techniques for a more linear approach. He paid particular attention to the lunge, a deep, heavily-committed thrust (one of the first writers to do so) – which would be an effective tactic against an opponent who’s shuffling backwards all the time.

To keep out of reach of the boatman’s longer weapon, it's thought, Bonetti would have had to slip (backstep) often; but on the uncertain ground of a riverbank he would have kept his steps small. “Bonetti’s Defence,” then, is repeated small backsteps. Fitting, given the rocky terrain.

While measuring brown sugar today, I noticed a dis-colored mass and culled it. Washed it off and it looked like a rock. "How did a rock get in there?"
Later, in the name of Science! I licked the rock.
It was sweet. I decided it's probably a solid crystal of sugar that had escaped the crusher.
