If post-independence Ghana had had Botswana-caliber leadership (i.e, clean, democratic, and economically rational) instead of Nkrumah and successors, how high could its HDI have realistically become by ATL 2017 (assuming the course of world events is generally similar), given that it was one of the most developed tropical countries in the world at independence?

I'd guess something like Barbados' .795: at the upper end of High, on the threshold of Very High.
