I saw no proof that you need 60 plies to see the draw. It is better to post the line of 60 plies so people can find if this is really the only line for black to force repetition and that black has no alternative to force repetition with a shorter line. 2)hash tables may help and program can see 60 plies forward when the maximal depth is 53 plies thanks to hash tables.
