Humans have 95 minutes/40 movrd instead of 120 minutes/40 moves(75 minutes+30 seconds per move gives 95 minutes in he first 40 moves). Some humans do not know how to use their time correctly. The new time control can help them because they get 30 seconds for every move and cannot get into a serious time trouble when they need to play 5 moves in less than a minute(I know that there are even GM's who get into this time trouble).
