The speed difference between Deep Junior and Junior is relevant because Junior
can lose the game and maybe can lose also against akopian(I do not know)
and it is not clear if Deep Junior can lose the game.

If it cannot lose the game it also cannot lose against akopian and if it can
lose the game then we do not know if it could lose against akopian.
