IIRC a couple of other CCTs were also 45 10, but there was a 75 10 for CCT1

The question had come up if there was an significant difference between
certain times.

My thinking was that most engines need about 3x longer to see another
ply deeper, so 75/60/45 all would produce very roughly the same "quality"
of games.
