Disruptive Innovations

The right amount of disruption is healthy, but too much is detrimental. Innovation often comes at a cost. An article today in the nytimes reported the harmful effects that chemicals are having on our environment.
Are there parallels to this in the world of Jiu Jitsu? Have we had any disruptive innovations that actually may not be good in the long term? Likewise, have we lost anything of value from the past?

The thing about it is, all these new techniques and developments are put to the test everytime someone rolls. So I am of the opinion that none of these innovations are going to be detrimental to BJJ in the long term. If the moves or the system doesn't work, people aren't going to use it, and it will fade off in the background.
