PS: Ignorant blather is not evidence.
Calm down mickey--it's not the end of the world.
What you want this to be about is how using a special play that deviates from optimal strategy over a long-term scenario might produce an overall inferior result. But it's not Einstein. It's about the possibility of a special play ending any particular session.
Wise up.
