No need to be pessimistic. Learning is a new challenge currently in
the 'state of art' of the first chess programs in the 70's.

The Rebel9 book learner for the moment is limited to the 'tournament
book lines'. This covers about 80-85% of Rebel9's book learn results.
It's planned to include the 'big (standard) book' too in the learning
process for future developments.

Learning in chess takes time.
