Can they win? If they can win against that style then can you demonstrate examples how they do it and what moves they play that computers will not play? Note that if they can then it is clear that computers with the right book also can do it(you only need to guess possible games and put them in the book and if you are lucky then the program is going to win in the same way that kasparov or kramnik can do it even without leaving the book).
