Man versus machine...
I can accept precomputed tables as being part of a machine ("machine" being a
hardware/software combination). But when did paper ever become part of "man"?
Garry does use analysis from other players. It's in his memory. Just as the
precomputed tables are in the machine's memory.

It's a machine. Accept it as a machine.
Alternatively, call it something like "Man versus disabled machine".
