I agree to both of your points.
If Kure does not allow one of its books to be used, it is unfair to let CM9000
use it.
CM9000 is not a ChessBase product, so it is unfair to allow the engine to use
the ChessBase book learning system.
Thank you for bringing it to our attention. I'm extremely surprised that the
SSDF guys do something that is clearly against the spirit of their list.
