I'd play 24/22 13/10 because it is very likely that your opponent will make the 5 and then would want to hit lose on the 4 after, so better to avoid a split to that point.

I'm not sure I understand this reasoning. Wouldn't this argue for 24/22 13/10 as a reply to an opening 13/11 6/5? But money-game rollouts clearly favor 24/21 13/11 over 24/22 13/10 in response to an opening 13/11 6/5. What's different here?
