We don't CARE if it's the correct bound. All we want to do is prove that it's less than or equal to alpha, which we expect because we expect the first move to be the right one. As long as it fails low, we don't care what the right score is. Only if it fails high (meaning we were wrong about the best move)do we care about the right score, and have to research the new best move in (alfa,beta) rather than (alfa,alfa+1)
