 It might be more productive to have a dynamic criterion of term in the
evaluation slightly biased in favour of open positions. Or if it is reasonably
successful as a predictor to use it for enabling different features in the
Q-search.
 Testing that would be reasonably easy. Do a test version of your search that
compares the different Q-search results at each node you visit. And record the
cases where they differ hugely. And make note of features in your eval that seem
to have an affinity to upsets.
 It might even make a reasonable predictor to do this test Q-search at a node
one or a few halfmoves before the leaf node. To mortgage the costs somewhat.
Just off the top of my head.
