Thanks again, and interesting. You mentioned in the descriptions the various
advantages of higher settings for some of the parameters, notably the Chess
Knowledge. Aside from the King Safety, I take it that you now believe the
default values are still best.
A number of the settings aren't clear to me all the same. At least the
differences between them. There are a number of parameters linked to attacking,
such as Attack, King Safety, and Attractiveness. The difference between them is
very unclear to me.
Another point is the selectivity of the search. I see Selective Search = 100,
and below a group of settings called Adjusted Selectivity (turned off, but
still). There's also the setting of Search Technique. I noticed in the 10.5
description a Deep, Deepest, etc. In PD it is Null Move. I take it that they
turned out to be less efficient?

P.S. In the position with 1.e5!, wasn't it Spassky who played that move, and not
Capablanca?
