In Response To: A decision you're unlikely to face when playing a bot (Timothy Chow)

I'm not sure what I like best, but I would have thought 6/3 6/1 was a contender. My thinking is simply to pay later - white's board isn't looking to improve soon and if he has to clear his midpoint then things get easier. I'm not surprised I'm wrong, I'm just starting to learn the game, but I am a bit surprised I'm so far off that it isn't even a candidate. What am I missing about the position that makes it clearly wrong?
