The problem is that it is possible that Nimzo8 was lucky to get positions that

I agree that seeing games give more information then seeing only results but the
problem is that people do not know to get the right conclusions from this
information.

I believe that 500 results give more information then 10 games even if the
people know to get the right conclusions from watching games.
