I saw it the same way, while conceding that the facts are accurate.
It makes sense for SF to internalize the details before making decisions. At
some point there will be a realization that AZ is a fundamental change.

That is a common perception, especially among those who have never debugged a
Go program. :-)
I was coming at it from the other direction, reasoning that since SF and AZ are
close to perfect at chess, then there is less to gain from speed. (Whereas I
doubt that AGZ is close to perfect at Go.)
All of this is subject to my money back guarantee: my opinions are guaranteed
wrong, or your money back. :-)

What about the data point that AlphaGo Zero gained 2100 Elo from its tree
search? In a game commonly considered less tactical?
