I have heard that it goes deeper. Deeper wins on the whole as you know.

It is a fast program, so I would imagine the programmer has found a way to focus
the search better with relation to the others.

They are fighting for a narrow, specific part of the tree. Null move pruning by
mostly material factors makes that.

Getting an edge on this particular tree makes for good percentage increases in
winning chances against other programs.
