This is exactly the opposite of what I wrote: "that makes
humans *uneasy*." Of course, humans play better with slow
time settings. Blitz is very hard for humans.  That's why
Zen is 5d at blitz and 4d at slow. Nobody is arguing that.

Well the fact that bots scale is established, it is the
humans scaling which sounds reasonable but is not backed
up by evidence.

And maybe the fact that bots scale is ignored by the
challenger whose knowledge about computer go I don't know.
I just pretended to warn him that he will face a much harder
opponent than he expects. And wish him luck.
