Cumicon is only the biggest winner over last 5 years at plo. He never used pio or studied. Nanonoko was the most consistent 6 max winner at holdem. Isildur still one of the most dangerous players in the world. No pio no study. The best players don't use pio its to simple. Poker is complex game. I probably have one of the highest win rates at holdem and plo and I don't use it either. Once in awhile I might pio a hand but not often but not to see what pio would do with my hand but to get better grasp of my opponents ranges.
If you have to study with pio to try to win at poker you might as well try to make money with poker training site or staking like your doing. Poker is a game of creativity those are the big winners. Not people to simple minded that follow pio. They will go broke. This game is not for simple minded people that try to follow a system. It doesn't work. Its a game of complex creativity.
And Dnegs is mtt player hes not a cash grinder. Comparing him to Pio is like comparing apples to oranges.
"However, even these rare players who mostly learn by doing do end up studying solvers by proxy – through study partners or through analysing the strategies of their opponents." I know you want them to fit in with your gto mind set but your completely wrong. This is how YOU study. Some players do study solvers. But a lot of them don't that I personally know that crush. Your assuming that winning players study pio. Cause you study pio. THe best mma fighters in the world are not gto fighters that use a basic stance. They are very creative and do things opponents never seen before cause they can't train against it. And thats how i play poker i do things they don't expect. I cause a lot of tanking and tilting. Cause its not in pio to help them make a decision. They might look it up later but in the moment they are deer in head lights. Thats why creativity and not studying solvers is more important. Everyone has solvers its old news. It has a limit to how good it can' make you as a player. Its just basic strategy.
