I have already posted this once, but one regular reader did not see it,
so I am posting again in case some others have missed it.

I am a physics guy, and my thesis project was a large MC simulation.
The clusters that run SlugGo are usually busy doing MC simulations when
not playing Go.
In general MC needs to sample according to the proper distribution for
the problem. For some problems in quantum
I agree with what you say here and I'll try to make my point better.
First, my limited experience working with Monte-Carlo simulations involved
photons traveling through scattering media. The sequences of moves described in
the Mogo paper are pleasantly reminiscent of this.

calling light playouts.
As per the above, it seems to me that light playout
is simply ignoring any proper distribution, and thus
is just a much more inefficient way to sample.
Well maybe Sylvain is willing to answer

The earliest MC engines were extremely simple and easily described. It
seems inevitable that someone new to the field will seize on this
description, and then combine it with the success of current Monte-Carlo
engines, leading to
