3-ply RO commentary

In Response To: Cube action in a volatile position (Timothy Chow)

There seems to be bot solidarity that this position is a pass. I doubt GNU-bg 3-ply cube is as good as 2-ply cube, but no matter. (3-ply play, yes.)

The big surprise in this position (for me, but apparently also for John and Neil and probably others) is the low cube ownership equity for the trailer. I don't think this is an anomaly of the position but likely systemic. I'm pretty sure that at many late matchscore situations the cube ownership equity is quite high for trailer, but those are (apparently) at scores where trailer's back isn't against the wall. Here trailer has little to do but rewhip with the slightest hint of a market loser which translates to low cube ownership equity. I've never looked at this before but it makes sense after seeing these XG and GNU-bg rollout results.
