Even Frantzis, bless him, is guilty of this! He certainly thinks Chia's is the wrong way, like you, but the whole idea of naming his stuff the 'water method' was so he could diss the fire method - these categories don't actually exist in taoism! And the fact is that although Chia's original sexual techniques have big problems (due to the general high energy I think) they can be modified and then they start to work better - see Michael Winn's stuff for instance.
The problem with all this in-fighting is that it makes it harder to trust anybody, and to top that off, it even makes it harder to trust oneself because all these gurus can't be right, and they all know more than you!
