Yes, playing black against a mirroring white is easy - just take the tengen
early enough. Playing white against a mirroring black (who started at
tengen) is the more complex one. It is possible to set up a winning semeai
around tengen, but there are interesting questions: When to do it? What is
the most effective way to do it? What if black stops mirroring in the middle
of this operation - can we still get a better result?
