The math was not meant as a crucial part of my followup. OTOH it should be
understandable rather easy (with normal school math knowledge). It was just
meant, to understand the order of magnitude of the number of positions in the
tbs files.

"for the potential number of moves obtainable" above really does not make much
sense. Number of moves is not the issue - number of positions is the issue.


Do you understand what the lines mean, now?
