64 to play, not sure what and why

I agree with the play and the reasoning. Having a significant race lead and a strong advantage in board strength often points to an anchor-breaking play. Jumping both checkers out looks like it gives White a lot more hitting rolls than jumping one checker out, but fours are duplicated, and if Black leaves one checker behind then it is vulnerable to attack as well.

If Black's spare on his 4pt were on his 6pt then I would still jump out but I would be less sure whether to play 6/2 or 20/16 with the 4.
