Just to be absolutely clear on this:
This is a result from matchplay between two engines. The difference calculated
is of course only valid for results between those two engines. In real life it
may not mean much. Shredder 8 may turn out to be weaker or much stronger when
playing other engines. That's just the limitation of the model and measurements
used.
