I mean that Fritz 8008 ALSO must be matched against those players, and not only
Shredder 7.04 being matched against them.
Even if shredder 7.04 gets 60% superiority over other top programs, and 55% over
Fritz 8008, it still might be that Fritz gets 68% over the others, even if it
only got 45% over the Shredder, in which case the Fritz is the stronger program
(according to that).
