It's an inaccuracy of the system.  I think the reason that Ed is using this
system is that he's generating the attack info as part of the evaluation which
is carried out at every interior node - hence the exchange evaluation is "free".

>(like not resolving xray attacks)?

Ed does account for some xray attacks by incrementing the number of attacker
without changing the piece mask e.g. if a bishop attacks a square though a queen
the attacker count will be 2 but the only piece mask that is set will be the
queen mask.

Hope this helps,

Steve
