Bullsh*t.

AFAIK Shredder normally puts out a BIG warning when using
the autoplayer that you should never run with incomplete
tablebases.

So effectively the tester in question must have knowningly
run it knowing it was crippled. Very bad points for SSDF
here.

Some programs have a workaround that makes the ugliest
appearances of this problem go away. But that doesn't
fix the problem - it still occurs everywhere else in the
search tree. I think it's better to warn the user there
is a problem than to hide it.
