When assigning the credit value for a node which is a transposition, are *all* 
parents which point to that node credited, or just the particular one which led 
to that transposition in the current continuation?  If the former case, that's 
seems like the TT would lead to more efficient learning (a bit "RAVE like" 
since a single trial results in multiple updates) although wouldn't it 
be unwieldy for a node to have a list of pointers back to its multiple parents?
