Actually I didn't mean to suggest that alpha-beta does correspondance analysis
like this, but that the end result should be the same. I.e. if at a certain
depth one move is vastly superior no further searching on other moves is
necessary.  In theory.  But again in practice programs have a hard time seeing a
deep payoff after a forcing line, they end up having to go to very deep depths
which takes forever.  So what programs have automated this as part of their
normal searching, i.e. do any try to detect such forcing lines and succeed?
