i am fascinated by the little changes chosen now giving bigger swing outcome later, that occupying an empty square versus another by a same piece or in combination with other placements, without resorting necessarile to reduction in total material and hoping that through exchanges some arithmetics of material count ROT would favor me (i know that might be the fastest way, but yes I suffer from that tension mystery seeking quest, knowing chess is rational in the end, i find those the most mysterious challenges, and they might demand being patient on the winning front, so as to ask the most discerning questions on the board).
and i believe endgame material simplicity, is making the empty square business or trade more salient.. I am not interested in being skill full at endgames as an advantage in full games, but as a key or model for more material intensive positions challenges.. overdoing the reasoning and planning practice there, i think might streamline some distractions aways until I might be seeing thing more cleary to put them back later.
I also find disappointing the usual menu of practical endgame practices as they focus, perhaps market oblige, on winning ones, where the material given should be winning most often.. (ok not really true but a tendency).
I am more curious about "symetry" or "balance" breaking smallest difference in the placements.. so i am actually wanting to work from drawish. I find drawish the simplest place to start having a rational approach to that placement muse. But i have to deal with what is out there as resources. That flow.

I play lots of endgames with my friends - I play easy on the opening.
