@GMJacobAagaard White is obviously not in need of a tactic?? But if white is behind in material, isn't they then forced to have a tactic?
NB: I am just a simple club player.
@SChevannes Maybe because chess is played by many old people? Also, chess culture is backwards and changes so slowly. Just think of the world championship where the players write down their moves with a pen!! That is so ridiculous. Tradition, yes, but not progress.
@IGMGataKamsky Bad argument, not bad FIDE. By your logic Magnus must be banned from major tournaments, and that would make chess much less interesting.
