you wanted to review it from move 4 ( 4.m9 ) or my 4th move ( 8.j6 )?
your 1st comment (other than to compliment my impeccable logic) was when I played h5 -- that you thought 6.k17 might have been better

did you see 8.j6 before playing 7.k7 or did you find 9.o9 as a very effective counter after I'd played it?

I actually did not see the possibility of J-6 prior to you playing it. My move was the correct one based on general position. Here is a tip you should think about and keep always in your mind: Bridging around a peg with a single peg is often unsuccessful. Before attempting it, always look at every possible counter play from your opponent.
If you can find a counter play, bet that your opponent can as well. Keep looking at options until you can't find a way for your opponent to counter your move. Also, think about reinforcing a position before making the play. If you had played 1.d222.j153.n144.m95.h106.h57.k7 |8.l11 Your play would be a bridge anchored at both ends and could have swung the game around in your favor.

I'm not at all sure I would have seen 9.o9 -- either as black or white

If you would have missed O-9 it is because you are focusing in the local area too much and not looking at the whole board. Work towards expanding your "view". I had a good bottom position and you had a great left side position. You did not have a secure path to the right so that is where I looked.

I would really like to understand this better ...

What are those "positional principles?"

Positional principles in this case means playing a Beam attack to the open spot on the board knowing that play from M-9 could not bridge around and M-9 itself was a single peg with no nearby supporting pegs,
