There is a lot of positional understanding that is not about sacrifices.

Finding good sacrifices is productive only if the price is not finding too many
bad sacrifices.
I read in the winboard forum that
Vincent Diepveen claimed that the problem of commercial programs against Fruit
is that they often sacrifice and find no compensation for the sacrifice.

The fact that Fruit does not find some good sacrifices does not prove that the
evaluation of it is simple.
