White seems to have an advantage in position - a strong board, an anchor, and the timing to wait for a shot. Blue is ahead in the race. The threats seems to consist of blue making a couple of plays without being hit or white hitting an indirect shot. Not sure that's enough threats to count, but also not sure that the position part of the rubric is to white's advantage.

Which is to say, it looks like a cube due to the race. Rule of THREES would say ship it with a 3 pip lead and pass with a 30 pip deficit. But blue's ragged structure and gap on the five along with whites strong board and timing make me take.

D/T.
