But the data should be different for different komi values, right?
Iteratively producing self-play games and training with the goal of
optimizing for komi 7 should converge to a different optimal player than
optimizing for komi 5. But maybe having high quality data for komi 7 will
still save a lot of the work for training a komi 5 (or komi agnostic)
network?
