Bit of a hack. If we decide this is useful I should also add it to value_tournament, clean it up so it does literally nothing when mix is 0.
Running a tune with T82 network - looks like optimum is to have very low policy temperature and a moderate policy mix.
Tune probably doesn't have right range for PST - but current minima (after 6000 games) is 0.325 (policy mix) and 0.26 (policy temperature). Elo gain vs pure value mode is estimated as ~40 elo.
As the policy temperature goes down, so does the optimal policy mix. At policy temperature 1 the optimal policy mix seemed closer to 0.5. (Which was also probably >30 elo)
