Note that I did not say that he played like a child and I remember that ernst
heinz gave an analysis of many hours that suggested that Qb6 is the best move.

The main problem is that the analysis was done at that time and
humans simply did not have strong machines to help them and they did not give
their machines many hours to analyze.

I believe that the main line of Deep Fritz with Ra5 was not mentioned at that
time but if I am wrong then you can correct me.

I did not check if Qb6 is winning but my impression is that the game move is not
winning.

If people want to convince me that the game move was winning then the first step
is to show me how white win against Deep Fritz in a correspondence game after
the game move.
