The problem is under-specified. When you move a slider, how should the other two adjust? There are many possible solutions and you haven't specified any preference here. The easiest solution is to maintain a fixed order of preference,

To be fair, the move started a while back (arguably in 2017 with the introduction of the Ryzen CPUs). For instance, Steam's hardware report indicates that 1/3 of their install base already has 6 cores or more [1]. [1] https:&#x2F

You keep digging this hole deeper. Some reasons why your message is just terrible: - You are nobody to tell us (business owners) what we do or don't want. - Can call and have to call are two very different things. - Your reference

The point is that in chess there's some variance between the opening/tactics/strategy/positional strength of players at the same level, but not _that_ much difference. To cheat convincingly you have to boost all those fa
