Didn't they deny that assumption last time?

  Not that I recall, but "close victories" were mentioned as well. Moreover, professional commenters didn't know why Alpha Go won: they qualified some of its moves "poor" and were dumbfounded as to how it won anyway. (Alpha go did lose one game, but that was because it didn't manage its time properly: it used the same amount of time for every move, even in high-uncertainty situations.) I don't see them making the same mistake again though. By now the machine is most definitely superhuman. Its moves will be studied, and this will likely improve human play as well.
