In Response To: Real Backgammon (Timothy Chow)

I was speaking theoretically, and relatively, and about the future ("closing in on 'solving'" (note the quotes)), plus what Matt said. Definitive doesn't necessarily mean perfect, or that the matter is permanently settled. The point is that opening play is pretty well understood (and becoming more so with each generation of bots) and therefore it's possible to master it to a much greater degree than other parts of the game. You're so literal. ;)
