Be aware that the evaluation shown by these hacked Houdini executables will no longer take into account certain elements relating to endgame tablebases, contempt and the stage of the game.
Use these versions at your own risk/peril.

Excellent "explanation", Robert!
You keep good defense.
Robert is actually correct in what he has stated that it does not take account of certain element given the stage of the game. You can see this by testing it. Not only that, I modified RobboLito's eval output to match Houdini's until you get towards end game then you see the values begin to deviate.
