  Not that I like the idea, but it can make sense if you can use a number of
programs. Deciding which one is right in a non tactical position is a tough
work, and can _possibly_ show chess understanding.
  Kind of same change in the way of thinking as can be for a 'live' player to
play correspondence ("what's the point if you can actually move the pieces on
the board?").
