I think that the reason Magnus spent so much time in the first move, is not being late, but seeing a mate in 347 moves unless he plays symmetrically.

[@unknownentity8256]

that aggro gigachad strategy to push the king in to trap the bishop and defend the knight was just genius

One thing I've learned from these high level chess players is it's actually better endgame to be aggressive with the king and keep him hugging your pieces. On back row alone he's dead.
