I think you are mistaken if you claim that the author of Hydra invented null

Null move pruning was invented by Adelson and Velskiy way back in 1975.
Also Palay, Goetch and Campbell and Don Beal were already experimenting with it
years before Donninger wrote an article about it in the ICCA Journal.
