what would be a good time to learn the bishop and knight mate? i just had a game where i sacked my rook for a pawn to simplify into a bishop and knight endgame; we agreed to a draw shortly after
It's a pretty rare material combination. It doesn't hurt to learn the technique so you can see how the bishop, knight, and king work together to restrict squares, but just be aware you probably won't see it happen that often.

Anytime is good. It is the hardest type of checkmate to pull off, research says.

Whenever you feel like it is a good time. In my opinion, it is fun, although not very useful.
The weird thing about the game above that you did not even try. You just gave a couple of random checks and then agreed to a draw. Why would you do that? It is just bizarre.
You should have tried until the 100th move to get an achievement lol
