If you have something that is huge then it is full of blunders(there is no way to avoid blunders if the thing is too big). If you do a book from all the public chess games in the world including championship of childs under 10 then you can be sure that you are going to have many mistakes in your book. I wonder why you believe that bigger must be better. Uri
