Hello!!
I termed this as pawn islands. I thought that only pieces capable of creating
dangerous combinations would give this structure more inferior. Dangerous
combinations would mean pieces that are capable of creating mating threats. With
mating threats naturally the opponent will constantly look after it, then at
some point one of those islands would fall.

But what will happen if we are left with only pawns?, or KNKB both with pawns?
