What are you talking about?  You said this, "*possibly* if it prints (6), the
logs clearly show that 5(6) doesn't show a 5 ply mainline. but < 5", and I
responded with data that proves you wrong.
You didn't say anything about extensions.  Without knowing exactly what they
did, there is no way to find out exactly which moves were being extended or by
how much, so it's impossible to "reduce the extensions".  You could guess which
moves receive extension, but it's impossible to know for sure.

Maybe SE only "extends threats against pawns and captures" in your program, but
you can't say that's what it does in every program.

>You so naive?

Maybe if you could say exactly what you mean, stop changing your mind every 5
minutes, and stop spewing irrelevant random pages of stuff about your program
while assuming it must apply to every program, I could respond in a way that
sounds less 'naive' to you.

It's not my fault you change the argument or completely stop responding when
someone gives data to challenge/disprove what you're saying.  By the way, I'm
still waiting for output of Diep without repetition detection on the h3
position.
