Subject: negative extensions

Howdy.

Inspired by the thread on extensions, I was wondering whether the idea of
negative extensions or reductions could be a good one.

I mean, maybe many of the "unsound" pruning methods would be sounder if, instead
of just pruning, they just adjusted the resulting depth down. In that way, a
line would still be examined, only later.
