Hello Uri,
You make a good point.  I have only played Rebel Century a few games at 40/2 vs
Junior 5 and Hiarcs 7.32.  So far I believe Rebel is about even or maybe 1 win
and the rest draws.  I believe Rebel Century is very competitive at 40/2 vs
other programs but haven't had the time to test it yet.
