I think that both games were lost not because of bad opening line.

In the case of the game of deep blue prototype against Fritz3 the reason was
clearly a tactical mistake.

They have excuses for that tactical mistake but I do not care about it.
I do not know how much time did deep blue use for c4 but time management is part
of the program and they should expect the circumstances that happened.

I do not know if it lost connection after failing low for some objective problem
but even in that case it could remember the fail low and use more time.
