Thanks for the analysis.

There's a project currently that emulates AlphaGo Zero using distributed computing / crowdsourcing: https://github.com/gcp/leela-zero . You can run it on the browser too and it will submit the games after: https://ntt123.github.io/leela-zero/

Hope such a project will be available soon for the chess variant.

Or maybe Deepmind will release this as a SaaS product?

Deepmind should release the TF compatible model with weights. And then it's just a matter of shrinking the model enough to run on desktop hardware.

But I don't know whether they'll do it. I hope they follow suit like other researchers who have github repos with code and models besides their papers. Really accelerates research.
