paisley: I wish these problems wouldn't say "seki." A life-and-death tsumego should be "live/kill in the best way possible," just like in a real game. I saw the seki immediately, but, imho, part of solving a seki problem correctly is seeing that unconditional life is impossible, which is harder. I can avoid the mistake of clicking before fully reading a problem on other problems just through discipline, but the spoiler on these really prevents reading it out properly. Unfortunate.
caranthir: Hints like that are not so much present in harder collections. In any case, even if it says "seki", you should read enough to convince yourself that it's really the best that can be done.
