In short, yes. After a while I just file your inability with dealing with short top away as uninteresting/unchallenging and stop doiing it. That is of course a weakness of mine, yet it makes me enjoy my matches more. At the expense of not winning some of them, of course, so that “there is a better way to win” may not even be the case. I just don’t obsess over winning that much. Win, lose, no matter, qouth Miyagi (“you play good gsme, earn respect”, I believe that continues, and for me that rings true, vis a vis self-respect.
I also help disabled players train, people with all kinds of limitations. With most of them any short serve is an automatic point — so I don’t serve short, and still have matches that challenge me somewhere, and offer something for my sparring partner. It’s not that different, to my mind.
