New filters basically encourage me to try new designs. With experience with the same filters, I end with same kind of design because of score "only". As a player, the score is my main motivation. Hopefully the score meets Scientific goals.
For example, in the past, we had a resulting 3 helices top scoring (and scientific) solution.
With the new filter, we had to adapt, and now we tend to find a 3s-2h, but still in various alternatives: SSSHH, HHSSS, HSSSH
With longer 100 residues, this might change to 4s-3h, with many alternatives. Moreover, the 3 helices might be on the same face, or alternate 2 on one side, 1 on the other.
I suspect that when we all will converge to always the same best design type, the Scientists will change the filters (only sheets, etc).
It's ok for me. I like the time of exploring new designs for new filters.
