I think that also if computers will be allowed to partecipate to this events,
grand masters will continue to refuse them.. They use programs only to enlarge
their audience in short matches and they will never accept a 16 or 24 games 2x40
moves match....
What if the 5 top chess player will be only programs?
After a while there will be less interest for this game...
