+ // IMPORTANT: The `pos` in this function is pretty much useless as it
+ // is not always the position the features are updated to. The feature
+ // transformer code right now can update multiple accumulators per move,
+ // but since Stockfish only keeps the full state of the current leaf
+ // search position it is not possible to always pass here the position for
+ // which the accumulator is being updated. Therefore the only thing that
+ // can be reliably extracted from `pos` is the king square for the king
+ // of the `perspective` color (note: not even the other king's square will
+ // match reality in all cases, this is also the reason why `dp` is passed
+ // as a parameter and not extracted from pos.state()). This is of particular
+ // problem for future nets with other feature sets, where updating the active
+ // feature might require more information from the intermediate positions. In
+ // this case the only easy solution is to remove the multiple updates from
+ // the feature transformer update code and only update the accumulator for
+ // the current leaf position (the position after the move).
