I think some owners do things to keep students happy and paying without really looking into if those things are something that actually benefit the students and themselves. Also, I think that some instructors have a huge ego and feel like they know everything. You can't teach what you don't know. It's like having your students grapple and not know how to grapple. I've actually seen this in two different schools. What your former instructor did was quite dangerous because their are some really good and properly prepared MMA competitors.
