Thank you Magnus, you are right about UCT. I misunderstood it.
But the essence of my post is still valid, even if not applicable to UCT. Simulation is a very sound, stable and "blunder-avoiding" value of a board position, but it does not represent perfect play. This is something that should not be neglected because shodan players approach perfect play. Will MC development show some kind of ceiling? Who knows, but it certainly could be.
