Started reading. and I think, I would suggest that everyone look at chess for their own level novelties. From a given learning status from ignorant to your level of expereince, I think anything new on the board own experience performance play or most likely study play, even reading stuff, is a learning moment, a eureka.
I am not sure I could read and walk in your shoes though.. But maybe I could read for the message above the chess, about the pyschology of novelty finding, as a subjective experience made object by talking about it and sharing it.
For me, chess is a promise at that level for many days to come (even while looking at chess theory, in an integrative critical way, as a learner). Sure, hearing experienced player share that experience, conforts me in that chess is not engineering existing knowledge, so that I might be right in that it always might bring those findings. There might be the thought that these are not for us (or them, or us and them...) those not as experienced or learned.. I have not read the whole, just the initial proposition.

Well, I read more now. And the blog did bridge to any level, about the fun, and possibly unending room for each level having discovery moments, whether just about a surprise effect in very prepared contexts, or our relax chess pace, learning track, there are many things to keep one stimulated beyond the winning rewards. I did start to follow the pros and cons and counter surprises.. The thing is, even though it was delaying catching up on material, the fun of it was in the probably shared expectation that at that level, going off expectations was a possible strategy in itself, time control becoming an integral to the background thinking, from this possible relation between expected moves and speed of execution of well known expected moves.. those depths of sequence before a high level player actually looks at the full board as a new position. Again with my novelty relativism. But again, it was well presented in the blog itself, in the conclusion.
I guess it must be a coincidence but also in 2007 I discovered my most memorable novelty see schaken-brabo.blogspot.com/2012/02/mijn-nieuwtje-in-wijk-aan-zee.html
It is fully playable (latest Stockfish confirmed) and it is very efficient for online games (at lichess it scores above 67%).

Demographics and knowledge absorption? (or). With such difficulty being more accepted, perhaps one might consider using more board descriptive nomenclature for chess knowledge on the data side? (known move sequences prefix leading to playable positions with some weighing per time control parameter). sorry for the precise but unusual wording (it makes sense to me at least).

Ohh this is so cool! As I read 8.O-O in your post, it made me think 'this is similar to Max's novelty he once played...' and it was actually that novelty! I was there at the Australian Open 2011 where he played it and I remember discussing it with other players as it was such a cool new move. :-D
