If "more time" means "more of the same simulations", it might simply lead to 
filling in the details; the peaks exist (hypothetically) because the playouts 
are doing something non-optimal. 

I wonder if post-game review can focus on such positions and learn something 
which would optimize the playouts. If such meta-analysis is quick enough, it 
could be done during the game itself.
