Comparing the evals in K10 vs. K9.4, it seems that with default value of 88 for Magnify, that K10 compresses evals.
Would using Magnify = 100 return the evals to the K9.4 values?

What is awful, is that there is a standard for scoring, and, worse, that this standard is not well defined. I wonder if this standard did not constrain too much engine programmers to stick with a single way to evaluate a position. Instead of a centipawn, why not a winning probability, a distance to make progress, a millipawn, or whatever else?
Moreover, nothing is more volatile than the value of a pawn. Can you show us this unknown pawn that should be use as a reference of 100 centipawns?

Well, the 88 value does compress evals, but the 110 for Dynamism raises them. Perhaps something like 95 would best approximate k9.42 evals on average.
