I think that Gulko did not learn to take advantage of the weaknesses of hiarcs.

I think that every top programs has positions that it has good positional
understanding and positions that it has bad positional understanding and the
positions are different for different programs.

I do not see something special with hiarcs that is different than other top
programs.
