Subject: engine strength contributions

This is a hypothetical question. I would welcome any rough ideas from the
experts writing the engines on importance of different things that contribute to
a strong engine. So, here we go.

Let's say there is an engine ~2200 elo. it is a well-rounded engine with no
striking gaps in the book,tactics,strategy, etc. Everything is just average.
Now, the plan is to take it to 2600. If we separate the engine's play into
parts: book+middlegame+endgame, or book+positional
knowledge+tactics(calculations). How would you describe different part
contributions as the engine gains 400 points (e.g. book improvements can gain
max 50 elo, etc.)?
