@HG,
A long time ago you have told me in the context of Grand Chess that having more heavy pieces shorten the game. That is true both there and here. But from my experience it takes a lot more to proper calculate when many heavy pieces are present. This gives to me rather a sentiment of randomness. To do it right you need a lot of time each turn even for computers. I want to argue that although having a lot of heavy pieces shortens the game as number of turns, it does not on time on the clock. That being said, you have made a nice pyramid here. But I do hold against Grand chess that is has few light pieces.
