I think Caruana's advantage on the clock ought to be worth Karjakin's advantage on the computer, at least.

Well the computer likes it. Van Kampen, in the commentary box, plays Siclians and he wasn't bothered, says Sicilian players like to run around with their kings.

The chess24 computer thinks Svidler just made a fairly bad move, which might be consequential.
EDIT: on further consideration it calms down a bit.
