Yes, because his pawn´s c4 and c6 are on the light squares and white has a
blacksquare bishop.So the rule say exchange the pieces and play a comfortable
endgame.Playing different is against the logic of chess.Bareev can´t play
against the logic of chess as a good player.Hiarcs had played with the
exchangevariation of the french for a draw.

So the programers have a problem with the french defence and it is not solved.
