I congratulate the authors for this one volume Opening Encyclopedia; a massive project & well done! They did use ChessBase & Analysis Engines to evaluate. In light of the many Positions recently posted; where Fritz & Hiarcs could not solve some simple positions in a reasonable timeframe; I wonder what timeframe might have been used by the authors before concluding the analysis was correct. I must admit some disenchantment with these Top Programs; and recognize that in a Tournament situation under the USCF Time Controls, the Programs, Tactical monsters they may be, often cannot properly evaluate some simple positions. Under the restrictive time controls for these Human/Machine matches, Opening Books, Horizon effects etc, I suspect some of the Humans are just laughing all the way to the Bank. Am I over-simplifying..? What am I missing here? Just a Novice here asking what maybe a dumb question, but would appreciate any thoughts/comments. Thank You!
