I have looked carefully at _all 12_ of DB vs kasparov.  Humans select book
openings _all the time_ for their computers.  Alex Kure for Nimzo, Jeroen for
Rebel.  Me for Crafty.  Moreland for Ferret.  We can't choose moves _during_ a
game, but we can set this up _before_ the game, just like GMs do with their
teams and seconds prior to a match.  All perfectly natural and according to the
rules of chess.
