It says there that it is 33 ELO stronger. Does that mean much? If THAT is true,
then that is very good, i.e. adequate for an upgrade, which is important. But Is
it anything more staggering than that? Perhaps it's a mistake and it's really
much much more? Not usual!
 It says that the greater speed, and king safety (spoiling the fun) go into
making it stronger. Also more knowledge, but how much more? The above alone is
enough for the extra 33elo, I'd imagine.
That fact that it recently crushed Fritz, therefore might have just been a lucky
spate, and not that the rest of the engine was brought up to that kind of
result, in general.
Or will the window one be even better?
