It is clear that there are people who
have bigger talent to play chess than
other people and I also believe that there
are people with bigger talent to find
better personalities.

The only way to know is by competition
when the opponents use the same time to
find better personality.

There is no competition in these conditions
so we do not know who has better talent
but I believe that finding improvement
is not an hard task.

I believe that
I can find ideas for improvement based on
watching games and analyzing them and after
seeing some patterns I can change things
and get improvement.
(for example I found that movei lost
games because of underevaluating mobility so
I increased the mobility scores(of course I need to be careful not to increase
them too much but I usually try to look for the
smallest changes to avoid the mistakes)

Movei is not close to the level of Rebel
but it may be possible to see some patterns in
the losses of Rebel espacielly if Ed added
more parameters in the evaluation without
testing and you do not need to be genius for it.
