In Response To: Colorless Counting--A clever concept (higonefive)

All that improved playing ability shows is that people have a better sense of the right balance among competing strategic factors, and possibly that people are willing to do more calculation OTB. It doesn't mean that there are any "really really new" ideas. Or rather, there might be a lot of little new ideas that cumulatively improve our understanding, but no single "big" ideas, which Phil (I think) is looking for.
