Bison > Gnu > Gazelle should be right order of three very close bi-compounds on board greater than about 72. They should each rate nearest 6.0 than any other whole number? Then too I still say Falcon(reducing to 5.0 after so many moves) > Rook(5.0) very slightly on 72-100, and Muller has temporarily ''proved'' that wrong; so Zillions too may have some different rationale hard immediately to dispute. Besides colourswitching handicap of Gazelle, Gilman would say correctly that longer-range weaker value does not kick in yet at Bison (1,3 + 2,3) distance. Low piece-value Antelope(3,4) is under 'A' at Piececlopedia, so Gilman knows that one remark of his not up to his usual excellence, and that clever subtle weakening, combined with binding pairwise, in fact makes the best p-ts for Piececlopedia or Short-Range projects, not the implied other way around.
