I and several others looked at them.. And yes, there were tactical errors.  As
I said, _all_ errors don't cause a game to be lost.  All errors don't cause a
win to become a draw.  They are simply errors that fail to win material, or
which lose material _if_ the opponent sees it.

He made even more in the match he won the previous year.  Having a choice
between +4 and +2 he took +2 at least one time in a not horribly complicated
endgame, even...

I don't pay much attention to moves that don't change the game outcome.  But
a computer will _never_ do such things.  And the inverse 'blunder' is also
true... moves that _appear_ to win material but really don't...  moves that only
a computer would make...
