Nc3 and f3 are underestimated.

Very interesting. Surprisingly, the two most popular opening moves both e4 and d4 are evaluated as 0.08+ and 0.06+ only. Nf3 scores as the best opening move with eval 0.17, while g4 is considered as the worst opening and it might possibly leady to forced lose for white with -0.92 evaluation.

Interesting...if you subtract bonus for side-to-move (Tempo = 20)...
1. Nf3 score drops to -0.03

Does this mean that SF sees chess as a draw?, ie w/ little or no advantage for either side after a very deep search.

Isn't this completely expected? Being the side to move is the exact advantage white has in the starting position so assuming the tempo bonus is tuned correctly you would expect an advantage in the starting position close to the tempo bonus.

Further in the starting position neither side has revealed any information about their plans, since white is the first player to move he is at an inherent information disadvantage relative to his opponent, so I would even expect the advantage to be slightly less than the tempo bonus.

I don't think this means SF sees chess as a draw, I think SF sees the position as very slightly better for white at depth 50 according to this...

Before move 1: +0.20 for white
Depth 50: +0.17 for white

SF is holding onto this 'tempo' bonus, but that's it...there's no other improvement of position.
If chess (in theory) is a win for white, I would expect white score to slowly increase.

if it is a win for white in 70 moves, you would not expect a white score to slowly increase so early.

it does not make sense to waste one's time with an engine evaluating 1.c4, 1.b3, 1.c3 and 1.h3 as all equal.

typical output by an engine in its infancy.

it might be the case that 1.c4 is winning altogether, at least in some 90% of lines.

this is so imperfect: so many moves pruned, so many nodes evaluated incorrectly.

for correctly assessing the start position, as there are no forced lines, one needs at least an evaluation close to perfection, and SF eval is admittedly very poor.

would not make very much sense to repeat the same exercise with SF before 2045.
