Despite your insistent pleas, this is not evidence of GM level.  GM norms are
mathematically described in the rules for FIDE, USCF, or similar governing
bodies.  When computers have managed to perform as described, then they will be
playing at GM level.  Since they have not, we cannot say that they are and we
also cannot say that they are not.  We really do not know.  To pretend that we
do know is bad science.
