How did General Choi create Taekwondo, if it was a unification of styles?

The different kwans (schools) of martial art styles (Tang Soo Do, Taekkyon, etc.) were unified under the name Taekwondo. A name which General Choi supposedly came up with.



Fine, he named it. But how then does it make any sense whatsover, having the good general talking about himself being the "founder" of Taekwondo, when the styles of martial arts were already defined and in existence? He did not "create a new korean martial art".



You can invent new karate styles (Katas, method of training), without inventing Karate - actual techniques..



Your thoughts?
