If you're going to be taking the results of your computations as "ground truth" for the next 5 years, you may want to make sure that your opening book has fewer than 1 mistake out of every 20 decisions, especially when the mistake is easily fixable by doing a longer computation."
Neil replies, this is a good point, but we are dealing with comparing one play with another and the 95% CI's don't overlap, or barely touch, the overall confidence that one play is superior to the other is significantly greater than 95%.
Here's an update after about 12000 games for the top two plays.
XG says that S has 99.4% chance to be the best, Z has 0.6% and N has 0.0%.
If you take the reported 95% CI for each play and do the math to get back to sd and then calculate jsd and look at a jsd table, I think you'll find that these figures are close to accurate.
