It may help to get better results against humans but I do not care about it. I prefer to see code that help the computer to see faster if the sacrifice is right or wrong. If I play a correspondence game and my opponent play the trojan horse sacrifice then I want a program to tell me if it is a good idea or not good idea to capture and Crafty's code does not help here.
