Ok. Here I agree.
In other cases, you prune them away.
You are not really pruning, just postponing. Of course you may overlook moves of genius, who doesn't? But if your probabilities are correct you may be emulating what a human does.
You DO get wrong answers much faster this way though.
Why? I don't see why. I see this order as the most human like way of searching. As any incomplete search, it can blunder, but why more than any other incomplete search?
