Attached is an interesting testposition which occured in UCT-Suzie against
Peter-Woitke. If black plays 37 c4 the game is lost by 0.5 points. If Black
passes, white gets a lot of threats. Black can choose between a safe loss,
or some risk and a win.
UCT-Suzie and the public domain version of Crazy-Stone played the save loss.

Seems like you're mixing up Territory and Area scoring. Under area
scoring rules the programs can strengthen their (final) position by
playing in their own territory. (Crazystone as Black would win under
Chinese rules)

The example illustrates why Japanese rules provide a slightly more
interesting endgame.
