if you click the board where there is no piece, it resets to the current position.

I think they should just eliminate the "Cancel Move" button altogether.

 

Personally, I think they should combine the actual board, the analysis board, and the conditional moves. You should be able to make as many moves into the future as you want, and save them as a conditional set when you like it, and that would take care of three things that you currently have to do separately. Also, it would encourage conditional moves, which speed up games and make things more exciting.
