and settle in the corner, cutting a loose.
is soksu because it (or more precisely, the response it is likely to provoke from the opponent) loses this option for White and does not gain enough to be worth it.
The kind of loss in this example is conveyed in the Japanese term aji-keshi but soksu does not necessarily involve aji-keshi. It is rather about a non-standard pattern which may however occur often, a common mistake, involving a clear loss of a certain kind.
