Uri how can you make a statement like that when you know that Chessbase has done
things in the past like send "new" commands and reset hash tables in programs.
The GUI also does some handling of EGTB files and some early errors were caused

tablebases?  You can never be sure what Chessbase is going to do with their GUI.
