It is possible to prove that an engine get stronger against humans but you need
to pay strong GM's a lot of money to convince them to play a game against Fritz
so Fritz can get one game every day.

Chessbase needs to pay millions of dollars per year for that target and I guess
that they have not enough money for that.
