I agree with this last statement for the early end-game / end-game
phase. For the pre-middle to middle I'm not sure. This is the
critical part of the game where you need to solidify the winning
positions. As long as reasonable opening moves that provide robust
options are made and it can play into the middle game stronger than the
opponent, winning positions should result.
But that phase starts very ealy on 9x9 ... as soon as you have
stones "touching".
