Fruit still has weaknesses that Shredder does not have and it extends too much. Limiting fruit's extensions may lead to at least 1 elo increase for fruit(at least 1 can be also 10 or 50 and I am simply not sure how much) Limiting fruit's qsearch so it does not need to search some minutes for mate in 1 is going to lead to another elo increase. Some important extensions(see botvinik-markof extension) can again lead to another increase and tablebases may lead to another increase. My guess is that Fruit is going to earn more than 50 elo in the next year(more than 100 is also possible but I prefer to be careful in my estimate). Uri
