I have yet to find a single game at 40/2 with no tactical errors.  Even by
Kasparov.  They might not be 'losing' tactical errors, but they are errors all
the same...

That is usually the give-away, because someone using a computer might make a
weak move here and there, but they _never_ hang pawns or overlook winning them
when it is reasonable to do so...  just like a computer, and much unlike a
human, even a super-GM.
