As we see from the table the PR of cube play seems to be typically twice compared to checker PR.

In case of play against a bot the gap narrows, because the bots rarely lose market and one might simply lean to take.

The statistics re. cube play is more volatile, because there are much fewer cube decisions compared to checker decisions.

Therefore you should not worry re. the "decreasing" strength of cube play too much...probably not signifikant.

With further study of BG both PR's will increase with a roughly stable ratio of ca. 2 acc. my experience.

The cube play in matches might be summa summarum not be more difficult compared to money play, because the difficulty of the adjustment is compensated by more match score related easier decisions, e.g. free drop, free take, optional double at -2-2, tendency to conservativism in case of leading and aggressivity in case of trailing, etc.
