Very interesting because it really seems that that was the purpose of the
'inventor' of chess. Rook, Alfil and Knight to be like the three types
of pieces that complemented each other... Historically the first record we
have of this (0,2) piece is the Camel in a Decimal chess of Baghdad
supremacie era... and also comes convergent to John Ayer theories!
It seems logical. We are just missing the proofs. :)
