I subscribe to this statement. Fritz plays best at 40/120 where search depth
often compensates for positional misevaluations (that can be observed in all
chess programs). One striking example was a French game I played a year ago
(Fritz was black) where Fritz wanted to blunder away the game by opening the
position against itself - only at the last ply (which was 12 or 13 AFAIR on my
P166) it always so the refutation after a couple of minutes and finally went
ahead and won the game.
