First of all, you != everyone. So you is you, please don't confuse
youself to everyone, which is a big mistake i think.

When you know a move no good, it is little interets to find out exactly
how bad it is, especially if you found another move is better.

I will not answer any follow up on this thread, because i found little
info it contains. What i want say at my orignal post is that a program
with little king safety knowledge can find the correct move at 9ply, and
i don't understand why other top program have difficulties.

I have little interests to prove my program is stronger than others, it
is not at the moment. I am more interested in why those programs have
diffculties.

And i am happy that my program did good job at this position.
