That's most certainly true, but it also most certainly comes to no-ones surprise that the number of lines Kramnik will have to go through to get his moves is not a factor in Deep Fritz's evaluation function. Plus, if these two lines transpose (certainly someone on this board who has a copy of DF can check this?) then either Bf8 is not one of the moves that were responsible for the loss or Be7 might well have been just as bad - from a game-theoretical point of view at least, not considering the psychological aspects of this that you mentioned.
