Yes it's mostly about simple tactics - mate in 3,4,5 moves.
Tuning your program for wac will not help for real live positions,
so it' worthless, but some programmers are so much used to it, they can't stop
it. And it's so fast. But it's useless. You'd better take 5 well known positions
and run your program against them.
