I think that the interesting question is if the default Rebel could win the games with the same openings. Programs need to know to win their won positions and the position was not so good to be 100% sure that the default Rebel could win it without testing. I have not the programs so I cannot answer but if we want to compare between programs then it is better if we tell shredder to forget all it's learning and play the same openings with the default version of Rebel.
