I did not understand it from bob's words.
I remember that he said that Rebel tiger13 is clearly better than the previous
version in endgames and Gambittiger is identical to Rebeltiger in the endgame.

You are distorting bob's words.
He did not say that he knows anything about everything in computerchess.

I also do not agree that they could see all by looking at Cstal.
The source code of cstal is not free and  even if programmers see that their
program is losing against cstal it is not easy to learn the correct thing to
stop it without causing other problems of losing by wrong sacrifices.
