Unfortunately freeware chess programmers seem to be sometimes not very clever.
You will never have as good books as the commercial Chessbase engines
have if you just collect GM games to make your book.
Chessbase has everything they need to make much better books, Super-GM help
included.
Unlike humans the Computers usually can NOT find the refutation of a doubtful
line which cant be refutated immediately (or which only can be refutated by
sacrificing a lot of material).
It is usually advisable to deviate from known opening theory as soon as possible
if you have to play against the commercials because they are not stronger in the
opening than many freebies are.
