This is more of an insight you get about Go Life, not something we "All know and agree of". Hikaru No Go was a manga that talked a bit about the purpose of playing Go, about being connected with Go players since time immemorial, trying to get perfect play, and failing but getting better each generation. This is a professional or go devotee mindset, not a typical amateur player that plays without the intent of changing Go Theory or making a legacy.
