Suppose program A on hardware B gets a 70% score against C on D. Now if E on B
gets a 75% score against C on D, wouldn't that be a good indication that E on B
is stronger than A on B, i.e. E is stronger than A on the same hardware.

Match AB and EB against several opponents, calculate ratings from the scores and
you get a pretty good rating list. This is basically what SSDF are doing.
