Here are the results using 3.7.3; I've repeated the 3.6 results below. = W+60.5 [correct] = W+61.1 (upper bound: 61.1, lower: 61.1) = 59.6 [better: should be 60.5] = 62.1 [better: should be 61.5] experimental_score's range is now correct, so may be useful to me; I'll try it on some more positions. estimate_score is still strange: surely upper and lower bounds should only be equal when the only moves left are filling dame? Or does upper/lower bound only take into account unsettled groups? If so clarifying the docs would be useful.
