I agree (Chris had similar feelings) - I think its a historical artifact
that no longer applies and should be removed. Thanks for looking into it!
I have plenty of disk space, so I don't mind large files, but note that one
possible use of "set analysis limit" is to reduce the size of saved .sgf
files. E.g. one can set analysis limit to a small number, analyze the
match/session, and save the resulting analysis as a small .sgf file. If
this command is eliminated, gnubg will retain the analysis of every legal
move (most of them at 0-ply, some at higher plies), resulting in a larger
.sgf file.
