I think Steve meant that the move /should have been used as/ a ko
threat.

this, in fact, is a ko threat. if you play it *outside* of a ko,
then it's a
wasted ko threat. no big loss if there are no kos expected and no
lost kos have happened. otherwise it's more tricky.
How is this a ko threat? Lazarus threatens a chain of 4 or 5 stones
with a self-atari move. If the opponent captures, where is the ko?
If the opponent doesn't capture, where is the ko?
