I agree about the drawish nature of the resulting position. It has that
traditional so called "advantage" for the human, namely Queens off the board and
a semi closed position with that white pawn formation. However, Junior handles
minor pieces quite well and a long played out draw is likely.

I should add that I was following Rebel XP's evaluation. Like Junior, it is
quite agressive in its handling of kingside attacks.
