You believe or know for a fact that these programs are switching books every
time it compete with a different program?. What I do believe is that if for
instance Nimzo programmer know that fritz or junior programs have problems when
they face closed openings where the center is blocked, then the programmer for
Nimzo might select a closed opening when it has to play either of these
programs.
