I agree, but... an IM would reject the trojan sac under blitz conditions too :o)
- Btw., the games mentioned were at 40/120' with one exception, and the last 3
on P600. Quite impressive.

Anyway, I think that anti-anti code (like Crafty and probably Chess Tiger have
it for this pattern) are useful improvements, towards "real" IM or GM strength.
