I think that it is only a small advantage (I guess that p200 vs p90 that is in
the ssdf games is clearly a bigger advantage and in the rating it give less than
100 elo difference.

I guess that this gives hiarcs7.32 40 elo advantage(it can explain results like
5.5:4.5 for Hiarcs instead of 5:5 but not more than it)
