Kramnik has no such qualms. The match is worth a million dollars, his rep is on
the line, so he is out to win. Period. In fact he adopted similar tactics with a
certain human player in another match IIRC. If he scores against the computer
playing according to his game plan, then it seems he is completely justified,
no?
