I must have been wrong about it being 'obvious' that clearing wins more games and more gammons, but fewer backgammons. From your rollout, it appears that, while the latter two assumptions were correct, ripping actually wins very slightly more games.

I don't understand what you're saying here. If we take the pseudocubeless numbers at face value, clearing does indeed win more games and more gammons in the original position. It's only in the variant that ripping might win more games.
