Getting the bots to tell the whole truth: a concrete proposal

For match play, the number of "Double game" and "higher-value games" should include only games for which the extra points won/lost had value. This would improve the utility of both "traditional statistics" and "actual statistics."

For example, in a match position rollout, I never want to see how many gammons one side lost when gammon losses were irrelevant to that side. The gammons lost are irrelevant, and misleading if one thinks they are always relevant to a money-gamelike score. They aren't, because of ATS play differences and because once a game is 100% lost the bot will not try to save meaningless gammons.
