I agree that the importance of books is limited but only if they are not counter
productive.
I tried to do games between fritz5 and itself and Junior5 and itself
when white has no book and black has book and I found that white had
more than 50% after some games.
The games were played at 2 seconds per move 4 seconds per move 8 seconds per
move and 16 seconds per move.

I think it is better to use no book for fritz5 in this tournament because
fritz5's book in this tournament is counter productive.

I agree it is not fair to replay only 1 game of Rebel9 when the problem was not
a problem of 1 game.
