More force makes the game shorter in terms of number of moves per average game, but it also means that you have to think more for each move. (The game is more strategical than tactical.)

Didn't Betza mean to say 'more tactical than strategical'? The bigger the force, as in Tripunch, the greater the tactics, no?

Perhaps he is saying that because of the greater tactical abilities of the pieces, more time must be spent on strategic considerations to compensate?

Tactics and strategy are intimately connected, as tactics arise naturally from proper strategy.
