when a program makes the same NPS but comes 2 or 3 searches deeper,
it prunes more or uses less knowledge in those positions that do not need this
knowledge. this leads to overseeing things other programs DO SEE because they
have still the full knowledge or do not prune that heavy.

changing values often has other effects.

but we should discuss this on the base of positions that give examples,
that makes it much clearer IMO.
