BQ: Dump the midpoint?

From my very short experience I can say that the midpoint is even more important when the opponent has only 1 checker back.

Hitting with 6/1* is usually correct in such situations, but here:
1) all moves with the remaining 4 roll are crap;
2) the opponent has a much stronger board than yours.

On the other side, 20/11 is a good alternative because you race (that is good, because you are ahead in the race) and you make another point which can help contain the opponent's last checker (a sort of additional midpoint).
