knight. some good reasons given. Another is that it attacks both adjacent files as well, so harder for opponent to prop up with a pawn.

Knight

Especially in the middlegame. Endgame it probably depends on the position .

Middlegame always knight. Endgame always rook. The reason is that a knight has an outpost in the middlegame so hes useful anyway and the rook in the endgame as a blockade has one and only one job to blockade the pawn while attacking it

Pieces = knight, overall factor = pawn.
