Almost nobody tried these lines against them so they do not waste a lot of time in preparing book lines against these options. I can use the commercial book to prepare lines that at least get them out of the commercial book. The secret book may be better but still I can look at datbase of games and prepare lines that get them even out of the secret book. White has a lot of options to get equality without playing something that was played in the past and I believe that some days of preperation may be enough to get equality with white and slightly inferior position with black so if my program is at the same level of the commercial programs I can expect 50% with white and 40% with black. I do not believe that they use weeks to prepare lines to get advantage against 1.a3,1.b3 1.c3 1.d3 1.e4 e5 2.Be2,... because it means that they have no time to prepare against the main lines. Uri
