This result is obvious to me. In fact I'm surprised it took 57 moves.
I think that GT would win every single game in 1 min. even against that same
opponent taking tournament timing over his.

But we know all that! The problem is that nothing is tearing the top programs of
the last 3-4 years to pieces in any way at all.
 I don't even know if there has been any tangible improvement at all, during
last 3 years, besides the hardware.
