I didn't q-search checks (both including checking moves and check evasions) in Cray Blitz and early crafty versions. I dumped them just prior to the 1996 WMCCC event because the program played better. Whether they would work better now or not is unknown. If you want to trust your q-search to find deep tactics, go ahead. I'd rather back those nodes up into the full-width tree where results are much more reliable.
