this is a red herring.  I don't claim the earth is flat, I claim the
earth
is round, because I have been all the way around it...  just like I
claim
that positional knowledge is simply a crutch we use because we can't
search
deep enough to understand the position tactically.  And that's quite
obvious
to most.  I haven't had a GM disagree, for example.  They seem to agree
that
"intuition", "feel", "positional play" are all part of not being able to
see far enough ahead...
