I think the first part is the key. Sometimes doing comes after. I think there is a lot of thinking to be done, before the doing. And I thank the blog author for the football analogy (more than the shark one, personal taste, or understanding of shark behavior).
The probabilistic context is introduced early. And even if I got the advice direction wrong, what matters is identifying the dimensions, and that was done.. Then it might need work on the actuall mathematical framework, but I think the point of the blog was suggesting there was more to a score 1-dimensional value of a position for game outcome purposes, from the human chess point of view.. Of course I am adding my salad sauce.
There is a lot of repetitive doing running in circle being done to my taste, sometimes getting head of that water, helps doing something else. As I said.. chess does involve some research into the fog. Otherwise we might always play speed tic-tac-toe.
