Crossfit now aims for good form and control.

That wasn't true several years ago during the Uncle Rhabdo phase, and Crossfit only changed its tune because of the overwhelming bad press about injury rates. Back then, it was about doing exercises as fast and as many times as possible.

and as any other transition, it takes time to incorporate. A lot of gyms and coaches I still see those days know/care very little about proper form and exercise individualization, periodization to make it safer.
