It makes me wonder if there are other classes of moves that can be segregated
as AMAF-worthy and AMAF-unworthy.
For instance, maybe capture moves played in the playout are only worth treating
as first when the enemy did not add any stones to the chain that got captured.
Of course, you can't do anything too complex that would significantly slow down
the playouts.

Yes, so presumably even the weakest version is doing it the "best" way,
i.e. doing the check.

It appears from testing 3 of us are doing, that the Mark Williams
enhancement is good, and that testing to see if the move was played
before is VERY GOOD when combined with the enhancement.
The enhancement without the checking is perhaps 40 ELO stronger but with
the testing it appears to be about 110 ELO stronger. Of course these
numbers are rough estimates. I can give more precise numbers in a few
hours. I'm round robin testing 3 versions against each other:
1. standard ref bot
2. mw enhanced - no first move test.
3. mw enhanced - with first move test.
