Two telling sentences in Fischer's last comment: 'A randomization of
quality does not approach an average. Instead it approaches the lowest
possible value since the definable nature of quality involves order and
structure.' How low? Probably low enough for Fischer to be considered a
'1' or '3' in Enneagram terms. (See Recg.ChVs. comments) Moreover,
there may be one Ultima-like ideal CV from an infinity of those, and also
one from the Carrera-Capablanca family, and so on, the ones actually
adding up to many games. A chemical analogy might be to trans-uranium
elements, having islands of stability, or simply isotopes, finite numbers
of ('semi-ideal') forms(species). By what standards for CVs? Many still
to be revealed or discovered, but one would be a full second row pawn rank,
at least as probabilistically more aesthetically satisfactory and more likely to be
associated with quality, if one will.
