You probably only recently started reading forums about computer chess.
Otherwise you would know Kurt Utzinger and Eduard Nemeth as Computer chess
Experts since a decade and longer. They are interested in computer chess since
10 or 20 years and their knowledge about computer chess is huge.

Kasparov and Kramnik didn't play against the engins as they were sold. In these
matches their were book experts which chooses opening lines especially against
these GMs. Probably neither Kurt and Eduard could score 50% against an engine if
there were experts tuning the book and the parameters against them.
