Here's another reason you should never resign: endgames are crazy hard, and not resigning is the only chance you'll ever get to practice them.

@duncesplayed thanks that's a really good point!

I just somehow won an endgame after losing both my castles, thought of this convo.

Endgames down 10 points of material don't teach you anything.
