Comments.Text: I think Tim Krabbé adresses this on his unmissable blog, but with the restrictive definition of "en prise" meaning "being targetted by a pawn". Can you precise what is your definition of "en prise" ? (it could also mean "can be captured", "can be captured and isn't protected (/ protected enough)", with variations whether the attacking piece is stronger, or pinned, etc.)
