I don't think this is true.  Open positions favor programs, but gambits don't
necesarily favor programs.  Most programs don't avoid exchanges when down
material.  They also usually avoid additional sacrifices of material to keep the
initiative.  They also don't understand positional gambits.  Unless the program
SEES compenstation for the material sacrificed it will likely not play the
gambit well.  Just playing any old gambit won't do.
