For PUA styles described as “inner”, “direct” or “natural” game, the answer is yes, since they all focus on making the man actually have attractive qualities (such as honesty, confidence, social connections, and emotional stability), rather than simply presenting the appearance of these qualities.
It’s rather like “How to Win Friends and Influence People”, in that respect. (Whose advice is to cultivate a genuine interest in other people, as opposed to merely faking an interest in other people.)
I missed most of the PUA stuff, so bear with me a bit.
Does “honesty” include averred intention? Does the “natural” style promote the mutual and explicitly acknowledged one night stand associated with PUA, or does it foster a “Relationship Artist”?
Have discussions of the “inner” style conjured “ick” factors? Would continued discussions be frowned upon? (If yes, I think this is a more fruitful area for dissection.)

Different teachers promote different things. Daniel Rose, for example, says that one-night stands are stupid because you can’t get the same physical or emotional intensity that you can with a longer relationship. Soporno doesn’t seem to have an explicit duration preference, but implies that most of the women in his circle have been there for years, and that those who left because they thought they found “the one” are always welcome to return.
But now I’m sitting here repeating stuff that really should be in a FAQ. You should probably just search for my previous comments about these teachers, or perhaps just google their stuff directly; my comments are based on free materials of theirs, as I don’t actually spend any money on pickup stuff. I just read it for the articles, so to speak.
