What is XG Thinking here?

Well, I'm neither an expert at backgammon nor XG, but I suspect the bot would not consider a double correct if there are zero market losers. Not only can you not lose your market this roll, but after more than half your rolls you are less than 50% to win. With no market losers and rolls that leave you trailing I don't see how a computer would not think it wrong to double. As you know XG doubles as soon as it's efficient, but I don't think it is here. Not by the cold calculations of a computer. But again, what the hell do I know?
