If SSDF did not want to play manual games with The King, it was the
responsibility of the company selling The King to help them getting
it tested automatically.

If they don't want to do this, there should be no reason to thank them
for that by giving The King a totally unfair advantage.

In case it still hasn't gotten through, a good book and a good learner
represent a significant time and research investment and I'd be damn pleased
if someone could tell me why The King gets it for free while programs like
Rebel, ChessTiger and Ruffian have to make their own.
