What am I missing ?

I don't understand this one. Surely for your cubeless take point, you'd have to take your own gammons into account?!

I'd calculate the cubeless take point as 29/78 (approx. 37%) and then maybe assume a cube efficiency lower than the usual 60% for taking into account that my recubes kill my gammons.

As for the terminology you are probably right, but in doing it that way I think you are throwing more potential errors in your way, by basically adding and substracting two estimated numbers that are very close to each other. As a reductio ad absurdum, if you tweak the cube efficiency too much, you could end with a take point higher than if you won no gammons.

If what Matt says is correct and 0 is a good approximation for the "too good" equity, then I think it is better to do it the way I did.
