I totally agree. In 2D a free stone has 4 liberties. In 3D, 6. In nD, 2n. The higher n, the less interesting. You could give 8 liberties to a stone by including the diagonal neighbors, but that would just produce that everything "reasonable" survives in seki. All games are a draw. 4 liberties is the "magic" number, but playing without edges mat be fun.
