I do not agree with GM Yasser Seirawan

Maybe they are 2400 in the conditions that I described(I am not sure about it
and they may be 2500) but they are clearly stronger than 2400 or 2500 in normal
chess based on results against humans in normal chess.

The only reason to make them weaker relative to humans is simply to change the
rules of the game.

Maybe chess servers should try to support option of chess games with the new
rules against humans.

allowing both sides to take back moves and time is easy and maybe humans may be
interested to get rating in this modified chess instead of normal chess.
