Ok, so basically, they assume their pruning is stable enough that they will not get blunders by adjusting the bounds. Sounds plausible, but this gets back to the last question. It's my undestanding that for MTD to work well you have to do the adjustment too. So why aren't all MTD programs weak? Perhaps because MTD is so sensitive to it they have made sure that their programs are stable in this regard? (e.g. safe lazy eval, no alpha/beta based pruning etc <- will get tricky to nullmove!) -- GCP
