I've read somewhere that early Ing-sponsored computer go tournaments
required that all dead stones be explicitely captured. Why is this
condition, also a requirement of T-T rules, no longer required?
The strong programs don't leave strange situations any more, so it hasn't been an issue. And some
of the newer programs don't implement the capture-everything phase.
