Computer vs. Computer games prove very little to me.  If you remove most of the
chess knowledge from craftys eval it will actually gain a few elo against
computers.  But would it play better chess against humans?  I think not.
Computer vs. computer chess dose not yet show the true play strength of a chess
engine.  Rebel was made to play good chess, not to beat computers.
