What reason would there be for not >doing this? Because there are many lines/positions in theory with huge dynamical versus material compensation, where programs have no clue and are "helpless" without human's knowledge in opening theory (even if it becomes better and better year for year). Dan Wulff's idea is to play "solid" lines and to remove lines with abs(score) > X and to trust Gandalf's skills and knowledge not to fall in opening traps. Gerd
