Since it was Boris Altermann who obviously spent a lot of time to enter the
moves or at least to give them the preferences like '!', '?', '?!' and '!?' this
assumpion is not that wrong.

I don't think this happens a lot within the first 15 moves. It is more likely
that starting to calculate too early because of this opening book problem
unnecessarily wastes valuable time.
