These are some interesting points, thanks for posting them out. Still though, they're all just stories. Most of the modern tests on the power of yumi bows can't even go as far as 40 yards. Its good that they can go through traditional samurai lamellar armor, but I doubt they'll have as much as power as the recurve bow or the English longbow who can go through stronger armor.
