This sounds interesting, but I don't quite understand how you can make it
work.  What does it mean that two moves are "from the evaluation point
similar"?  In most conventional search algorithms, you usually only know
that value(move A) >= value(move B), and you have no estimate for how
close the values of the two moves are.
