>One of the first things a knight would start learning at the age of 7 or 8 was wrestling including a whole bunch of joint locks because that’s how you can beat a guy in armor with your bear hands. Hell, that’s also why OG japanese jujutsu favored throws and locks over strikes too
Both yuro and jap hsitoric grappling had lock mostly to dominate the opponent while you get a weapon to stab him. Locks designed to end fights are something that only really start appearing in civilian scenarios where people are training for fun or day-to-day self defense. In the case of Japan they only start appearing well into the Edo Period when martial arts became a sport and social club.
