I notice that treestands and mechanical releases weren't mentioned in Jack's tirade. So, obviously, there is a level of "cheating" he's comfortable with.
I don't view treestands or releases as cheating at all. If you look at things that way then anything other then your bare hands is cheating.........and I guess you would have to be naked as well.
There is a nation of people that I have been tempted to bring into debates like this that set as high a standard as the one you have described. They think anyone who doesn't hunt their way is a coward.
There's always someone bigger.
