Right. Chris and my autoplayer-experiences show that genius5 is a very
clever learner.
I guess you are right.
But - as a result, this implies that I am also right:

Genius5 engine is not stronger than Genius4 not stronger Genius3 engine
!

If you take a look in the list Genius5 is only 16 ELO-points difference
to Genius4.
And this after an increase from 2420 to 2431 !

From my point of view Genius5 is weaker Genius3, but the learning saves
it, and even increases the rating.

Hm.
