Upon further reflection

I thought about this position throughout my 1.5 hour commute this morning. Part of my original thinking was that white wins a significant number of gammons. However, I didn't consider that because of the score, white only gets credit for gammons when he has a big swing and is suddenly too good. I've also give some thought to cube efficiency. I've tried to visualize the positions where white will have recubes. I think that cube efficiency will be mixed, but subpar. This will be partially offset by white's gammons on a 2 cube. Overall, white's chances are less than I originally thought. I'm on the fence, but need to change my vote to pass.
