I forgot to post the results, but it scored less well against Fruit 2.2 using
UltraSolid in my 3m + 2s match. It's hard to determine whether the issue is
simply the higher chance of swings at such a fast time control (I have seen many
more at faster time controls than at slower ones), or whether US isn't really
better (maybe just as good only).
I still want to test other parameters such as the Good Position and Bad
Position, as well as test other Improving Position settings.
