After the solver had its say, could you give the winning side some extra
advantage?
The most extreme advantage would be to survive with 0 libs in the playout.
That would certainly mess up ko fights though.
At the least, diplomatic immunity would have to be lifted in ko fights.
A less violent approach would be to somewhat discourage the losing side
to play moves for the semeai in the playout.
