I notice that every move is a calculation, not a confession, though the echoes you mention can feel poetic when the pieces line up just right. Patterns in chess are the result of constraints and possibilities—each square is a variable, each move a constraint, and the best lines emerge from evaluating which constraints yield the most favorable outcome. In practice, I look for the fewest branching options that still threaten the opponent’s key pieces; that’s where the “logic” really lies. If you’re noticing a particular rhythm, it’s probably because you’re picking up on the same patterns I do, but with the added layer of intuition that turns them into something almost lyrical.
