I agree about these results.

I hope that you are right but unfortunately I think that you are not right and I
guess 0-1

You could also guess better result for francesca because after 1/2-1/2 against
tiger something may be right with francesca.

I think that guessing that something is wrong with a program based on only one
draw against weaker player that is probably not more than 200-300 elo weaker is
wrong.
