I sure did :D

Those 0 regions on the defense chart are prime areas for switching to Dual Weapon Attack or Rapid Striking (or if you're crazy, All Out Attack Dual) to try and improve your chance for a critical hit, thereby bypassing the defenders amazing defenses completely.

They're even better regions for you to start to consider completely changing your tactics :D
And then there's the diminishing Parry/Dodge score...

Really, analysis beyond the 1 attack / 1 defense is too complicated to use in real time without Intuitive Mathematician or (Eidetic Memory + Lightning Calculator).
