=Mobility= In his 1987 note Challenging that Mobility is Fundamental, Larsson questions Dap Hartmann's definition of mobility based on legal or pseudo-legal moves, as well as distinct or total attacked squares , but favors weighting of squares toward the center or the enemy king, safe mobility, and mobility based on pawn structure or even more complex second order computations.
