Human and AI opinion on Gu-Lee game opening.

Game 4 in the Gu-Lee Decagame match. The position up to white 26 was insightful for many players.

I wonder what different strengths and styles of players think and feel and I also wonder what the Elf or Leela position is on this.

Without checking Elf, I think I can fairly safely say it will not like the following moves which don't follow the "approach or enclosing a 3-4 is more important than answer approach to 4-4 or side moves" principle: 6, 7, 8, probably 9. And given the bots love of territory I'd expect it to prefer black. Btw we discussed this position a bit in comparison to a question with a similar white group at forum/viewtopic.php?p=210893#p210893.

LZ #157 really dislike :w20:, with a -14% drop in winrate. It's the first move where she has a strong opinion (before that, the winrate didn't change much, black did grind back something like 1-2%, kinda meaningless) .

Then, it's the 44-45 exchange that trigger her : :w44: is a -8%, and :b45: a -13%. Before that, there is no drop over 4%
