Something is wrong with Fritz's book

It seems that it has only 1.c4 in it's book(otherwise I cannot understand the
reason that Fritz starts 1.c4 in every game)
Note that the result was +5 =1 -1 for crafty in the games that Fritz played with
white when Fritz won only the first game.

I can understand 1.c4 in the first game and 1.c4 in the second game as result of
learning from the fact that it won the first game but I do not understand the
1.c4 in the third game and later.

Even without learning the probability to play 1.c4 in every game seems to be
small enough in order to suspect that something is wrong.
