I think you basically agree with each other about the proper test methode and
the value of the result.

You state that _you're_ not interested in it. You want an on the fly analysis.
But at the same time you "don't trust" the analysis and want to check it
manually. And rightfully, because you certainly will miss "deep tactical
possibilites" as well, as can be easily proven with letting those test suites
running the full time - or even longer. Especially in the tactical suites the
hard positions are the ones with the deep tactical possibilities, which are
often not find, while the quick tactics are easily identified.


So you basically want an on the fly analysis which has no value to you as well,
yet you want to test the value of with test suites.

It seems like you just argued that you tested and achieved test results that
have no value at all.
