Subject: If castle problems were fixed for FRC what is the approximate rating?

What I am trying to say is if castling was (fixed and used for) (Fischer Random
Chess (and prechess?)) what rating would it be?
I would think certain chess engines would already make it a master rating or 99
percentile among humans.  Maybe I am totally wrong; what do you think?

Fischer Random Chess or FRC has 960 possibilities.

Prechess has several thousand possibilities. (Someone could post the answer for
"prechess possibilities".)   The initial setup for prechess will likely ruin the
castling scenario under FRC or "about 500 year old chess".

Something new to say,
Jonathan
