That is only true to a certain degree. Humans have the ability to forme a
strategy when knowing the opponent. A lot of good players are capable of
steering a game into a position that they understand. The anti-computer style,
if such a thing exists, is a strategy against a computer program :-). Just like
the Berlin system used by Kramnik was an anti-Kasparov strategy. They might both
be boring, but they're allowed. So there's no such thing as a "normal" playing
style IMO. Playing the opponent is a natural part of chess.

Exactly.

Maybe.
