Is our own discoveries in our very own theory of chess so unique? That we either smash someone else's theory or follow it soo blindly as to put them on a pedestal? Heh. I think more of the posters here.

I have often likened Chess to Martial Arts as opposed to the obvious comparisons to the Arts, Mathematics etc.
Because, to me, they're both cerebral & physical at the core. Philosophical and metaphysical.
Alas, that is also an ambiguity. Inasmuch as anyone's own theories are.
I've referred to Bruce Lee more than once, in regards to my own personal "system". Namely, the search for Ideas.
If I could digress. Over the decades, people have figured out the Rubik's cube. Uncovered schemes to rob other people of money. Broken into secured firewalls. Discovered life out there in outer space. Made insights on the thousands of species in our very own ocean depths.
