Position after 23 ♖c1xc6:

This move 23 ♖c1xc6 provides an incredibly instructive tactical lesson: <<<<<IF YOU LINE UP YOUR PIECES, THEN THE REASON WHY SIMPLY DOES NOT MATTER>>>>>.

Here White played 23 ♖c1xc6 in order to <DEFEND> his offside White d6-knight. White has no other way to save this endangered piece.

<<<<<BUT THAT REASON SIMPLY DOES NOT MATTER!!!!!!>>>>>

White has lined up his <UNDEFENDED> White c6-rook with his White d6-knight and the upcoming <PIN> 24 ... ♖f8-f6! will win material.

Black simply says:

<Thanks so much for lining up your undefended White c6-rook with your White d6-knight so that I can pin them. No, I do not care -why- you lined up your pieces, just thanks for doing it.>
