The easier way to avoid an advantage without going thru the problems of creating
a specific book like the Nunn book, is to set an amount of games that you are
willing to test the personalities, for instance if your goal is to only test it
for 30 games, then let one personalities plays 15 games with the white pieces,
then switch the personalities side of the board and replay those 15
previous opening, allowing both personalities to play 15 diferrent openings with
both sides of the board.
