what would the average depth be?
what about loosing on time?
IMO more than 50% of the games will lost on time.
Even if it's not 50%, a good percentage of games will be lost on time.
Than it won't really be a measurement of strength, but rather a measurement of
time management capability, and having a very very good book that will make most
of the moves for you within seconds.

It will be "fun", but not interesting or worthy of importance.
