I remember that amir said that there were some small improvements in the
evaluation and in the search.

I understood that it was checked that it is an improvement.
I know that Junior6a did not do weaker results than Junior6 in games.

It is possible that Junior6a is weaker in some positions that Junior6

Junior6 is also weaker in some positions than Junior5(for example Junior6 cannot
find the famous sacrifice of Junior against nimzo from the last WCCC).
