I only tried to explain the different results.
I did not say that it is right for the ssdf to use the old interface.

If Junior9 that played against shredder7.04 is weaker than Junior9 that played
against Shredder9 because of a different interface it can explain different
results.

I understood from sandro that the interface was irrelevant for the mistakes of
Junior and the problem is Junior's book.
