ATS containment cube

There would of course be no volatility if White were closed out, but White is not closed out. If you look at the containment cubes in the Backgammon Encyclopedia you'll see that they're fairly sensitive to the container's pip count. So the position is "volatile" in much the same sense that a non-contact racing cube is "volatile" when it's close to a pass.
