Consider also the fact that moves 74-100 were without capture and without pawn
moves.

Shredder proved in the game that it does not have a plan.

I believe that it could try to get with the king closer to the opponent king
with good results to win without an error of the opponent.

Shredder prefered in the game to block the pawn with the king and it does not
seem to be a good idea unless you assume that the opponent is stupid and is
going to give the pawn without trading rooks for no obvious reason.
