The reason for giving a slightly larger value to some own pieces is that I think
this contributes to support the higher mobilitiy of these pieces. And so far it
seems to work very well with wins (40/40) in matches over 10 games against AnMon
5.10, Chess Tiger 13, Fritz6b, Gandalf_432h, Junior6a, Nimzo732 and so on.
