You are typically "missing the point."  A 2600 Human would _never_ play moves
like Shredder did.  _never_.  A computer can play a 2800 game one time, and
a 2100 game the next time.  A 2600 human will never do that.  Both will make
an occasional blunder, to be sure.  But _no_ human rated even 1800 would play
some of those moves Shredder played.

you can't be a 2600 player if you play 1600-level moves from time to time.
It just won't work.
