In sum, you need to look at more than just statistics to get the whole
picture.

Especially when those stats are derived from calculations based upon anything
other than a perfect knowledge of every result of every game ever played -- and
even here, there is the problem of determining which games were "serious"
contests, and which merely skittles.


Well if that's the case no one totally dominated with extraordinary
force like Paul Morphy. Morphy just obliterated everyone in his path
in his time. I suppose he would be the greatest player ever if we are
going that route.
