I think you should have called it "A material disadvantages DOES NOT mean you are going to lose."

More insperational.

To a lot of weaker players, it is not so obvious. They need all the inspiration they can get.

I realize its obvious.  Lest you are being discriminate to lower rated players, I should inform you I have improved since then.  My point is that sometimes people including myself become so obsessed with getting a free piece that they don't see how close their opponent is to checkmate.
