there is no BEST move. there is only a BEST move into a range.
if you play a weaker move, that is a better move out of the range...
or if the opponent, no matter how good or bad your move is, isn't able
to stand that move within its range, than the opponent could be beaten.
there are no best or second best moves. there are move orders within a range
of search-horizont.
nobody knows what is out of this horizont. and which move order would be
sensible out of this range.
