Yes, this is possible, but not what I intended to mean. My ideal is to aim
at a much higher-level reasoning of the board, where I can drop the
irrelevant detailsof stones and liberties as soon as possible, and to
describe everything in more abstract terms. This ought to enable me to make
more qualified decisions about where to play, at least on the level of which
grou to attack/defend etc. I still admit that tactical reading is necessary
for finding the exact move (and for evaluating the starting position), but I
feel interesting stuff lies beyond that.
This is, of course, just my idle speculation, not having implemented any of
it.
