By running with 43Z-64, White duplicates Black's 2s (13/11), which could be used to make her 4pt (42 and 62), 7pt (62 and 21) or 21pt (21). This duplication does not exist to the same extent in 43S-64. Hence, 43Z-64R is best, while 43S-64P is best.

One note about the result for 43Z-64. At scores for which 43Z is the best opening play with 43, (i.e., only but not always when Black leads in the match and White trails), 64P will be essentially tied or perhaps the best play.
