No

I read the opposite.

I read claims that the testing against previous version increase the real
difference and after new Terra beated old Terra convincingly the programmer
claimed that the difference against other programs is smaller.

I never believed in this assumption and I see no reason to assume that the
difference against other programs is smaller(the only exception is if I add
killer lines in the book against the old version).
