Reading through this and similar threads, I think part of the problem/confusion some a referring to is that for some reason, guitar players often seem to skip all the foundational work that players of other instruments routinely get. All the basic theory, learning scales, how to form chords, etc. is missing from the DIY "curriculum" and then instead we spend more effort in the long run trying to figure out what we are missing.
Maybe one solution might be to build a solid foundation in how music works and then jhow to apply that to our instrument might suffice instead of dancing around all that with various "systems".
