Is that a small, fixed bonus of 1 or 2 points? A large dynamic komi in the endgame would really surprise me. But to actually compensate a misread fight, that komi would have to be substantial ... Like Don, I don't think that much good could come of it. Isn't it superior to award a point bonus in the playouts? Here's another idea: find a smart way to average the playout results into an expected result. If the bot is leading, try to maintain that lead in the next move.
