To clarify: I did not mean that a pattern-system outperforms a Go-playing
programmer when the Go playing programmer plays Go, I mean that when a Go
playing programmer puts in patterns from his memory into a pattern-system,
the result is worse than when those patterns are learnt from games.

If anyone disagrees, I would like to see their pattern system predict 46% of
moves in a pro game.

Now, if this is valid for "shape" (learned outperforms manually entered) why
would it not be valid for eye shapes for example?
