At the moment it doesn't even follow the rules. E.g. it doesn't do pawn
promotions correctly.

"Tough" is stretching it more than a bit.
While it is playing much faster than it used to, it is still
nowhere near the claimed times, typically being 1.5 to 2 times the
maximum stated.
It exceeds the time limit even by the clock on the page, which runs
10% to 50% slower than real time.

The only challenge is staying awake.
It took more than 4 minutes, at Normal level, to make the first
move, and is currently ay 8 minutes for move 2...
10 minutes, now, though the clock claims only 368 seconds.

For the first nine moves, the game has not taken less than 4
minutes for a move, and all except 3 moves have taken more than 10
minutes. Even if it were making outstanding moves, that would be
too long for a reasonable game. As it is, the moves are a joke.
Look at the start of the game:
1. f4 d5 { 4:00+ }
2. e3 Be6 { 14:00+ }
3. b3 Qd7 { 6:00+ }
4. Bb2 a5 { 14:05 (claiming 622 secs.) }
It is now at 18 minutes for its 9th move... it moved at 19:30.
Beginner and Easy levels are now playing at a decent speed, even
though not at the speed claimed, but they cannot be called strong
by any other than a rank beginner.
