For what it's worth, I think if you could codify in some manner algorithms for
playing nearly perfect endgames there'd be a lot of chess players eager to
understand those algorithms and try to apply them.  Although I may be in a
minority here, I do not believe there is anyone in the world today, Kasparov
included, who truly understands this issue.  That's not to say you shouldn't
attempt it, because attempting what has never been done is how fundamental
progress is achieved, but I do believe the size of the task should be clearly
understood.
