I am not sure how this book learning works for each book move.
The value that is changed, is this only because of the loss?
Is the program using positional values once out of book to change the learned
value?
Lets say e4 is the most solid, dependable first move.
Lets say we lose 25 games with e4.
now we have a learned value for something.
Is this learned value only for e4?
Is this learned value only for the first move, regardlesss of the line played?

If program A plays d4 against program B and wins 25 games.
If program A plays d4 against program C and loses 25 games.
If program C plays d4 against program B and loses 25 games.
I am not sure how this helps the high level book.

Is all this learning for only the first book move?
