Subject: Freestyle Chess?

Shouldn't one of the purposes to of the chess community be to promote the
highest quality matches possible?  It seems that this is best achieved with
Freestyle chess.  This is where the only rules are the moves and the time
limits, players can use any aids necessary to play their best game.  Remember
when 2 amateurs with an arsenal of various chess engines won a freestyle chess
tournament last year beating a GM using Fritz??
(http://www.chessbase.com/newsdetail.asp?newsid=2453).

We should be advocating the most advanced chess games possible.  Why is more not
done to promote this?  Are there any other ideas to raise the level of play?
