To be clear I loved Kageyama and his "Lessons in the Fundamentals of Go" and I still do so.
But it is time to have a closer look at his fundamentals

How much would the direct connection lose in those positions? It looks like in at least two of them, it would make a heavy group. But in the naked peep in the OP, white is not shown to be strong in the area while peeping, and that should matter. |

The difference is not much, but in 33% of the pro games (with the position from the OP) not connecting is the better choice. I had a blind spot for these candidate moves because I am such a Kage fan boy aka not blindly follow proverbs and rules but always consider the actual board position and be careful not to miss candidate moves because of fundamentals |

... and conversely, remember that if you peep, your opponent will not necessarily connect. |
