In this case I understand that it is not relevant because the IM plays probably like an average Fide IM in 1/0 games so winning against him in 1/0 games is the same as winning against Fide IM in 1/0 games. I understand that the IM is not IM in over the board tournament games so winning against him in 2 hours/40 moves is not the same as winning an average Fide IM in 2 hours/40 moves but this is not relevant because the games were not tournament time control games.
