Mr. Hyatt, Many positions and moves have already been compared, and DB is not always more correct than software. And regarding what weak players can see (however you put it) are you personally a stronger player than us? If you don't know the answer to that question, then how can you make such comments? At any rate when people like like myself write something don't you presume we have enough sense to base what we write on clear evidence and reasoning based on clear facts? Not to write clutter?
