I just did a test with no program attached. It seems to be asking the program what is dead or alive, so with no program attached it tells you to do that manually. But then it does the counting in both area and territory scoring by itself. So, this implies Mogo can see the two stones in the bottom right are almost alive in seki (?) but it doesn't use that information to initialize the search (which is strange, as I thought it does some pre-analysis to initialize the search). Or perhaps the dead stone information Mogo returns is deliberately dumb, and it just always says everything is alive?
