QF - What reasons could there possibly be...?

Everything points to a bold play:

- The score is equivalent to DMP so you don't really have to worry about losing a G (with a 22p anchor the risk of losing a bg is so remote that it should not influence the play).

- More checkers back, having an anchor, trailing in the race all suggest a bold play. If it goes well (he flunks), the gains are enourmous. If it doesn't go well, at least you will have prevented him from doing anything on the offensive front.

- The opponent has so many good rolls if you leave him alone. He will run away with big numbers or make offensive points with small numbers, maybe even pointing on you in the process.

I will be surprised if 6/4* is not the right play. This is my play.

QF is not enough to make me move up to the 20P. (since you ask for reasons which might make this play correct, I will mention this play preserves the 4 prime and takes advantage of the opponent's acepoint blot)
