dynamic vs positional describes the types of positions a player gravitates towards, that being do you understand positional/elemnts considerations more or dynamic elements more
hushed tiger

intuitive vs technical describes whether or not a player arrives at their decision making process through intuitive means of logical means
as a caveat, these descriptors only apply to players above a certain strength

not necessarily flashy, but more so elements of a position that could change in a move or two such as the initiative, piece mobility and potential tactical threats
positional is also distinct from strategic

Why knights before bishops
because bishops are more fragile, kicked away easier so it's better to wait a sec to find optimal squares

Why knights before bishops

Why knights before bishops
knights usually stand better near the centre, so f3 and c3 for white and f6 and c6 for black. whereas bishops there are more options to put the bishops

Lichess ratings are generally considered more inflated (higher) than Chess.com ratings, often by 100-300 points, primarily due to Lichess's higher default starting rating (1500 vs. 1200 on Chess.com) and slightly different Glicko/Glicko-2 systems, meaning ratings are relative and not directly comparable across platforms, with Lichess reflecting its own player pool, which starts higher.
