Maybe "faking" was too strong a word (but then I did not start using it in this
thread !).
Maybe the words "aggressive approximation" and "hypothetical sample data" would
be more appropriate ??

When I started researching on parallel chess algorithms , I went through lot of
literature , which did include some mathematically flawed papers (I did read
later that some of the data presented in some of those were for "illustration
purposes" only ;) )

I hope you are getting the drift of what I am saying ??
