Thanks Guenther, that WB forum thread says it pretty well!
If you are on a sidewalk and the covid goes beep beep
Just step aside or you might have a bit of heat
Covid covid runs through the town all day
Can the people ever change their ways
Sherwin the covid's after you
Sherwin if it catches you you're through
Michael, I will be glad if you prove me wrong. But even then I would search for ways to reduce game length. You want to feed transposition table with additional information, trusting that it will help to shape the final search. The idea looks good, as long as this information has a chance to be accessed. If you search 20 plies ahead, then there will be no use for entries from ply 40.

There is also back propagation from 40 ply down toward the root and that is why RL gets fantastic results. If it gets done it will have to be by someone else for personal health reasons. Thanks for your input!
