Nicely put, and never mind the reputation of the CCC, what about the reputation
of Kramnik?

The suggestion that such a strong player and master of defence (I even had a

ask for an explanation, probably prompted by BBC news reports!) would
deliberately play such a horrendous blunder is preposterous.
