and has ten checkers in the zone. At 5a4a his gammon value is elevated.
O's main saving grace is that she has a pretty good chance of anchoring,
but that seems like relatively weak compensation. I would pass as O.
Is it too good? Maybe, but if she gets a high anchor then I think she
can take. D/P is my guess.

Maybe it's what you meant but it's not entirely clear from how you said it. 5a has an elevated gammon value on a 2 cube, not a centered cube. Normally you wouldn't have to stipulate but if you're considering a position as TG or not also it needs tobe clarified.
