In Response To: 43Z-52H-52Z-42, Nactation quiz (Taper_Mike)

You are correct in every detail, sir!

This exercise was offered primarily to reinforce an understanding of the "exception" that an extra home board point overrides a hit. In this example (a glimpse from the tutorial update), A, E and N (as backgammon moves) are vastly superior to their lower-case counterparts, thanks to the home-quadrant exception. (The determinations of C/c, I/i and O/o are along for the ride.)
