Every time I look at candidate plays hitting on the 7pt+1pt or 7pt+5pt with three of the fours they seem to end up weaker than they first appear.

Is there a typo in what you wrote here? In this position, the hits were on the 5pt and the 1pt.

Here I would also have double-hit. I knew that in several analogous opening positions it was right to make the 5-point, but here I thought that the 10th checker in the zone plus the made 4-point would have tipped the balance in favor of the double hit. Perhaps if the defender's position is weakened further, by changing the outfield point into an outfield blot, the double-hit becomes stronger still?
