It is absolutely misleading to claim that Tromp-Taylor is "the standard for evaluation" in computer go.

Tromp-Taylor scoring has been used occasionally as a convenient means of simplifying the way that games are scored for the purposes of quantitative evaluation. However, area scoring (such as standard Chinese rules) or territory scoring (such as standard Japanese rules) are overwhelmingly more common, not to mention that these are actual rulesets used by actual go players.

Your claims are inflated and rely on overly-specific problem statements that do not map to normal (or even common) usage.
