Thanks for sharing your opinion. I actually addressed many of the points you raised in the conclusions section of my article. I acknowledged the limitations of analyzing a chess match purely through numerical metrics. However, I still believe that looking at the match through this analytical lens offers a valuable perspective, complementing other types of analysis, such as commentary from players and bloggers. It provides a unique angle that, while imperfect, can uncover insights that might otherwise be overlooked. Ultimately, I see this as an additional tool in understanding the match, rather than a replacement for more traditional forms of analysis.

What is the added insight though?

I believe it offers a neutral perspective on the game, without any bias that could exist in any analysis that is not data-driven. Sometimes when a chess commentator dislikes a particular player's style, it could be reflected in his commentary. For me personally, analyzing the match this way changed my view on it, but I completely understand if you do not feel that way.
