Still, I wish I could understand a bit better what happens when such great
engines lose games, still very frequently.
Does it point to a weakness in its evaluation, which the winner might not have

Or perhaps, it goes like this because to avoid all losses, you have to see
things from further back than the winner has to see certain things?
