Us too, I am positive that every single dojo will teach about the effectivenss of hitting places like the groan and such, we even have a technique that uses the spear hand to cut the eyes

As far as the spear hand is concern, it wasn't meant to penetrate the body, not as far as I know anyways, its meant to be a technique that is suppose to generate a concentrated central point of contact, i don't know of anyone who mastered it enough to be able to drive it into someon'es body, but i know of one person who uses it along the center line (groin, celiac plexus, etc)...
