I cannot think of any other purpose for all this other than to improve the
program's rating in the SSDF. You can't possibly use this for human players, and
you aren't talking about offering playing styles, as that is already rampant.
Creating a number of personalities to defeat specific opponents would require a
lot of work and would only be of interest to the programmer. Why would I want to
have a Rebel especially geared to defeat GM Svidler for example?
