Ask a guy who understand KR vs. KP endings anything

This was so difficult to grasp the first time around. I don't think it's possible...but after a couple of revisions, the ideas connect and everything becomes lucid.

 

So, anyways, shoot. I'm here to answer any questions you may have about KR vs. KP. Why the engine says this side's winning. Why some positions are inexplicably draws. And how a side can still lose (not draw, but lose), even with the rook AND the move.

I also understand R vs. 2P endings; don't be afraid to ask about those.
