Do you have CSTal ? Do you have Nimzo98 ? Do you have Fritz5 ?
Do you have 2 pc's of same speed ?
I would like to know how YOU get YOUR reality ?
I get mine by connecting my 2 pc's and let them play overnight
(cstal-nimzo98)
or play manually fritz5-cstal.
If I would have the opinion that fritz5 and nimzo98 would be light years
away (one light year is 9.4605 x 10E12  km's) from cstal, I would not
try to suggest something different here. My results are not like the
analogies you suggest.

I don't see why or how you can construct this reality.

There is no 100 %. This is against quantum mechanics. Maybe in newton
mechanics.
Your reality is not mine.
I don'T know on which "facts" you try to talk here, but i hope you would
have
as much games I have played so far.
I don't agree with your comments concerning capablanca and aljechin.
CSTal was not designed to play postional moves. Otherwise we would have
named it different. Tal was not famous for his positional play, he was
famous for his attacks. Straighten your facts !
You are wrong with your argumentation.
