That's a puzzle.  If it "destroys" all the competition, why do you believe that
their evals (which differ considerably) are better?  If they really had a
superior evaluation at crucial points of the program, wouldn't they win all/most
of the time?  Perhaps Hiarcs has a much greater positional understanding?

I do know that (at least against computers) Hiarcs seems to fare very well.

There may be some particular list of parameters where Hiarcs has a weakness.
Perhaps if you can specify exactly the conditions of the experiment we can
figure out what is going on.
