I forgot to comment on your article. Here I agree with you. _This_ claim is
nonsense.

But I would favor a solution that is in-built in the machine. Otherwise the
human player will always see problems in the behavior of the operator. Now let
us read what Tiviakov might have meant. (Note that he might have written his
declaration in highly emotional state.) He argued IMO that _if_ F. Morsch had
granted Reindermann a draw in unclear position, means he made him a present,
_then_ he should have given him, Tiviakov, the whole point, regarding the two
pawn (dis)advantage. If you read it like this you could agree?
