Interesting idea(?)

Interesting idea(?)
I am glad you found it interesting. I have been trying to come up with these kinds of things for a long time now. Another approach I tried was labelling each move using numbers, but this seemed too impractical when it came to powerful pieces like Queens and Rooks. It was fine for Knights, but didn't work that well for other pieces. This is the closest I have gotten to an approach that might reveal a connection between the visual representation of a position and the side which has the advantage. I hope that others will also find it interesting as you did.
