For example I can’t quite see how a one space jump can stay connected if the opponent drops a stone in the middle

Yeah that is one that go players treat as “given”, but is actually more subtle than that.

Basic question: running out with 1 space jump

The idea of running out with 1 space jumps is something we see all over the place. What am having trouble coming to grips with is how people make it work for them? Generally, a 1 space jump seems cuttable - you plonk a stone between, they atari, you extend, they protect one of the cuts and you cut the other. So how it is useful to “run to safety” with 1 space jumps? What basic thing am I missing here?
