 I share your opinion here. After winning 2 closed KI games as black (d6, e5,
 f4, g5, h5 and rolling) vs some GM personalities in CM8, I simply find another
 repetition boring. There are many other ways of challenging the silicons.
 Just maybe a real antidote vs Stonewall and similar stuff, won't be created
 before some attacking top programs learn how to use them for attack themselves.
 And then wins loads of similar games in autoplay and takes an easy lead in
 the SSDF rating list...;)
