A losing bot is never lazy. It can get despondent though. :-) The most interesting result is that a slight bonus on higher margins can improve the success rate, even though it might slightly reduce the bots internal winrate. I would venture the hypothesis, that increasing the margin from 0.5 to 1.5 is worth the greatest winrate "investment" by far. Messing up the final ko is always a possibility.
