That's an interesting statistic, and it suggests that trading Queens off early seems to affect some programs more than others. Have you looked into this? I wonder whether the drop in the score has more to do with the choice of opening leading up to the Queen exchange than the drop in quality of play with the Queens off (or alternatively fewer tactical shots, thus allowing a tactically weaker program a better chance). Cheers, Mike.
