I think that it will be productive if programmers can see comments about the mistakes that programs do. I do not play the king's indian not with white and not with black. I think that some test position when all the top programs do a mistake at least in one of them and explanation of the mistakes may be productive because the first step to fix a problem is to understand what is the problem.
