If that were true, you would not need a triangualar array to store the PV?

In some inner node of the tree, you may very well get a line that MAY be a new
PV.  It's a good line from this position.  But I suppose you are saying this
should not be called PV?  In that case you are right, maybe inner PV(IPV) is
what i should say.

The idea is just to store are good line from a position when possible, instead
of only a good move.  Of course i emphasize "when possible"
