It is not clear that Fritz5.32 is better than Fritz5.16 in games

I read that Fritz5.32 is winning Fritz5.16 in the nunn match but does not win
Fritz5.16 when both programs are using normal books.

I saw mistakes that Fritz5.32 made in games that Fritz5.16 would not do and not
only in positions when there is something to find.
