Why this move works

The answer is h3. Reading to the end produces a huge final +42 (4 discs better than the next-best).

The move that flips the most right now is a5 (3 discs), but it is not best. Immediate flips (h3 flips just 1) and the final result are different things — reading it out yields a big margin.
