I am not agree with you. My english isn't very good but I'll try to explain my idea. A style is only the result of several factors. The purpose (hunting, war, herding) and traditions will define the style. Question : did the Greeks used the greek style to direct the herd, is this style suitable for keeping the animals ? Today, we sling for fun and our "traditions" are the search for performance in terms of distance and target accuracy. Back home, kids used to fish schrimps by hand. It's not very productive but it's a great game. "Great" fishers will tell you that this is not a good technique because they do better, do as this, etc... We must not fall into this wrong. If an Indian hides his arms before throwing, I think we can say that it is HIS style even if it is not our way of seeing. Just my idea.
