Wow, they are so accurate
That’s what we all have predicted. Some sort of common wisdom.
Appreciate the people who contributed this project....... Too got to know much by those charts , and by that brief history.........!
Geez they're gonna need to add some squares to the chessboard to liven things up...
I have a comment:
Who is the most accurate world champion? Really, MAGNUS CARLSEN!

The most accurate games will be those that end as a draw right after the opening and are essentially home analysis. They will probably involve a lot of exchanges. As nowadays these games are analyzed at home with computers, they are more likely to closely match the evaluation of chess engines. So, the most precise games are probably also some of the most boring ones played in the WC matches.
This reminds me of an old analysis of world chess champions precision (if I remember correctly it was against compared against evaluations by Crafty chess engine) of play where Capablanca was one of the top guys mainly due to him playing essentially drawn endgames against weaker players and producing a large number of precise moves in those games. In such endgames it is not hard to make a lot of "precise" moves and bring the ACPL down. Much harder to do when being under the attack from Zukertort or Tal.
So it is also not surprising to see that Capablanca-Alekhine match was exceptionally precise for it's time. It was also boring and full of early draws in the QGD.

Imagine if the article came to this as one of it's conclusions...Oh wait, it did.
