When a programmer creates a book for a chess program does he only put in lines that would not give either side a huge advantage? For example if the Sicilian Defense is programmed into computer A to play only the best lines, what happens if an opponent (computer B) decides to play the Sicilian against 1.e4? Would not computer A play along the lines that would give Black the advantage? The same goes for the King's Gambit for example. If computer A has only the best lines for White wouldn't it when playing Black be at at huge disadvantage? What do programmers look for in openings books?
