The settings for Vulcan Q1d8c are still very experimental, and some switches
have been tested only in this particular position or for the Tal-Larsen
position, nothing else. But for the sake of completeness and people who want to
experiment:

The reason I made so many versions is I was not happy with the evals in another
of my testpostions from the Rebel vs Michael Rohde match, after 22Rb5.

Many versions switched from playing 22..Qd8 to 22..Qc7 at about 14 ply deep and
I did not like that move. Best move after 22..Qd8 is probably 23.Rxb4

Pro Deo 1.1 Vulcan Q1d8c here plays 23.Rxb7 in the PV, not sure how good that
move actually is but I am pretty happy with the 0.00 evaluation for 22..Qd8,
even without some correction for the own queen value to avoid exchanging queens,
which causes Qa6 to pop up now briefly with false fail highs.
