What informal / verbal / traditional endgame theory do we have for
global move decisions? I have collected the following. What have I
missed? I ask for theory with a general scope but neither ask for
details, local-only theory nor formal / mathematical / modern theory.
Although the list is a bit longer than I expected, it is still
shockingly short.

- Consider the local endgames with the largest move values.
- Play gote in order of decreasing move values. 1)
- Play but delay sente to preserve ko threats, options or aji. 2)
- Play double sente early. 3)
- Sente or reverse sente are worth twice as much as gote.
- Seek the last move before a large value drop (tedomari). 1)
- Ignore equal options.
- Consider the alternative strategy of mutual reduction.

(1) This often taught theory is wrong. Although these work as rough
guidelines, countless exceptions exist.
(2) This includes sentes that are privileges.
(3) This is useful only as an informal guideline. In formal theory,
local double sente does not exist.
