I agree that it is not simple to explore the weaknesses of the programs, but I think, based on Robert Yatt's experiences in ICC and in your experience in the Israel League (the chess player with rating Fide<2300), it would not be difficult for GMs to learn on that if we had more tournaments against programs.
