it's not a double according to the bot. Here it's better for
X because he has in effect gotten in an extra 13/4. For that
reason I think the double is clear here. I'm not as sure about
the take, but somehow I suspect that 13/4 isn't enough of an
improvement to make a ND/T into a D/P. I'd take this one.

---Very good (and correct) thinking.

As usual, the rollout is on my other computer.
I'm fairly sure I know where it is, so I'll get it here before tomorrow morning (UK time).
BTW, I did pass this one fairly confidently, and was quite surprised.
It's not a terrible pass, though.
