I can understand the part about attempting to injure a person, but what
is the logic behind disallowing parries using bodily contact?
Sounds like a solution in search of a problem.
Has someone recently been injured due to a parry of this type? Or are we
trying to avoid all attempts at historical accuracy?
Perhaps there should be a ruling that prohibits rapier fighters from
coming within ten feet of each other, to be completely safe?
