Hello @Vitamixbrand and all members!
As an advanced chess player, can you tell me which variation of the Najdorf masters "tend" to know best?
I play these 2 moves: 6. h3 (Adams' Attack) and 6. Be2.
However, I don't have a high OTB rating, meaning I can't "fully" construct a repertoire that can "give" me the most chances at winning. Are you familiar with these lines? Or do you know the 6. Bg5/Be3 "main" lines better?
Thanks for the time invested in writing this article!

How many opening knowledge discovery waves (in the population) can one ?M do in one life time?
Has the rate per capita or just the rate of discovery over generation changes in the past years, decades, centuries?
What is left after each waves? opening theory. All those still considered playable trails? or paths in some decision tree?
This is what I ponder when reading the introduction, and gathering from the grapevine (vanishing whereabouts) over past years getting curious about chess culture of knowledge pursuit (sometimes conflicting with secret performance advantages).
The agony? but the satisfaction of having shared by the voice of your chess pieces (including pawns, pieces of wood on the board). Isn't contributing to chess knowledge satisfying in itself. Short agony, I suggest. just a performance post-partum blues.
