The fact that the better program at longer time control or with better hardware can be different does not mean that the information is not interesting for part of the readers. The fact that you are not interested in information about the strength of programs in these conditions is not a reason to criticize people because the information is about computer chess. There are posters who understand nothing about chess programming and they are not interested to read discussions about technical questions of how to write things and I do not see them complain about posting information that does not interest them.
