I agree with you that if player doesn't lose everything against a dealer's blackjack, HE = 0.609.
I also ran simulations with CVDATA, Flat Bet, Hi-Opt 2 Counting Strategy (Full Index), HE =...
It's a "disguised" game... Dealer takes a hole card, act as an American dealer would do when an Ace is showing but tweak it in an ENHC game with any other up card.
