I did not express opinion about the meaning of 11(6) and I only expressed opinion that it is practically less than 17 plies of the top programs. The reason may be more extensions of the top programs of today and I did not express an opinion about it. Top programs are not using singular extensions but they use different extensions and I do not know if deeper blue used all the extensions that the top programs of today use. I remember few examples when other programs needed 15 plies to see similiar pv's to the pv's that deeper blue found in 11(6). I am not sure if these were the exact number but this was at least the idea Uri
