I do not agree with it.

-0.65 is not a good predictor of result in the opening.

take the following position from the noomen match

r2q1rk1/3nppbp/b2p1np1/2pP4/8/2N2NP1/PP2PPBP/R1BQ1RK1 w - - 0 11

Glaurung say 0.65 pawns for white after a minute of search

It does not mean that the position is good for white.
Note that Movei claims 0.98 pawns for white but in the noomen match between 2
versions of movei black won both games.

I wonder what is the evaluation secret of rybka and how it knows to evaluate the
position as very small advantage for white.
