Please stop this confusion.

Chinese scoring != Chinese rules
Japanese scoring != Japanese rules

Moreover, both Japanese and Chinese rules are to be considered
traditional rules.

Most of the mediocre Chinese programs understand when the game is
over and know what groups are dead.   This isn't rocket science
except in extreme cases it can get tough.   In those cases the
Japanese programs are equally clueless.   Trying to determine
the exact moment to pass seems like a tedious unimportant
exercise that at best will give you a stone or two if you have
a reasonable program.
