You must not answer me directly but perhaps you could comment on the question at
any appropriate occasion. What would you say if you, as always participating in
tournaments, observed such a game against Shredder who then played Nxd5. But
your Diep and also Crafty BTW do NEVER even consider Nxd5 but play Rd1. Would
you say that this is a clear example of a cook against SHredder in special? I
ask because I'm not so familiar with all such tricks being known to the
participants. Not long ago another operator of Rebel was proud to use other
tricks, allowed tricks as he said, against Shredder. Are such tricks part of the
tournament practice? And if yes, would you say that in _testings_ such cooks
should be left out? Or is the golden rule the stupid "data is data, no matter
where or how from"?
