is there such a thing as unfunctional strength

I guess the idea is that you need good strength throughout your body. Strong arms are useless without a good core back and legs to support them.

it's what people who do a few pushups every now and then use as an excuse.

Pumping your biceps and nothing else. Lot's of people do it.

Only doing squats in order to get a bigger ass

Crossfit = Functional Strength

Crossfit will give you strength, power, speed, agility, flexibility. If you need to carry your friend, you can, if you need to get up off the ground quickly and sprint away from danger, you can, if you have to climb up a tree away from a mountain lion, you can.

No. Every area of strength can serve a function.

Watching someone climb a tree in a wheelchair sounds pretty sick.

Seriously? You're better off learning Judo so you can quickly slam your enemy to the ground, and if it's a mountain lion attacking you, your best bet is to put it in a near naked choke and strangle it to death. Fuck your Crosshit.

I guess if you would only train every muscle in your body in isolation (assuming this is possible) and never performed a compound movement your muscles would be strong but you would suck at moving heavy shit because you're not used to using your body as a whole.
Remember that compound movements have a skill component
