With QF, one can figure this one out pretty easily. It is obviously
a gargantuan pass, so the only interesting question is whether it is TG.
If it were TG for money then I would probably have posted the problem
for money, since I don't post score-based problems very often. So the
answer must be that it's TG at 5-away/4-away but not TG for money.

That is indeed what the rollouts below indicate, but in practice I don't
think that I would play on even ATS. It's too hard to calculate
anything precisely OTB, and I'd rather nail down the 2 points for sure
rather than chase after less than 5% gammons while risking blotting and
getting hit.
