If doing your own, fear not mistakes, shun not corrections. They are the essence of good CV-ing. Less exhibitionist NextChessesXXs for entire CVS not piece-types alone, submit to trial and error too. Chess herself undergoes revision -- adding Queen, Castling, stripping the King's Leap and Knight's Odds. Even some of the Mating Numbers stated are not entirely clear yet. 'Mate#' means with King alone. 'Each piece-type has a Mating Number' is the breakthrough realization.
Just a name/definition hanging in space without two numbers is unknowable.
The mathematical object is just not defined that limited way.
The Mate# is either 0, 1, 2, 3, or 4, or 5, with the one '5' listed
provisional.  Until you have stated a value/use, you have not invented
given p-t, however earnestly put into words or CV art. A '6' or more is certainly theoretically possible.  MN and PV, name and definition become the four pillars.  As for the piece-value column, there are over 25 documented tests and they need to be collated.  For now use two or more of your choosing.  The required numbers move the left side of a reaction, Name and Definition, to full SOVEREIGNTY on the right. Sovereign piece-type country, the world of Caissa herself reclaiming.
