So how about generating a second opening book with the "fair" komi of 7.0 and using this for playing with black?

This affected Mogo's automatically generated book.  When all black moves
lead to a loss, the book generator has little basic to favor move over
another.  So Mogo has a good book for white, but a weak book for black.

For anyone who is interested in this, that is reported in this paper
(see section 3):

(I think these results should be taken with a grain of salt, as it is
just self-play, but it does fit the other evidence.)
