I don't think that +60 will >be true for games vs humans, however. It might be 1/2 of that or even less. Take 2 programs, one with 2000 SSDF ELo and one with 2600 SSDF Elo, assume the 2000 value is true against humans. Do you really think the other programm has a human-strength of less than 2300 , since all SSDF elo-values are based on comp-comp matches ?
