The first player is allowed to set up an arbitrary position as a starting position. The second player then gets to choose which side to play. ... However, in this variant, strong humans can easily blow the current bots out of the water by setting up a known tough position. I think this would be a very interesting variant of backgammon and there's still room for "revolutionary progress" on it.

Yes, very nice idea.
