To H.G.M.: why have you to be that unfriendly? But to give you a strong
argument, that longer thinking phases could change a game result: have a
look at:

where [a claim is made], that there would be a mate in 9. In
fact there SMIRF has been in a lost situaton. But watching a chess engine
calculate on that position, you could see, that an initial heavy
disadvantage switches into a secure win. Having engines calculate with
short time frames would probably lead to another result. Here increasing
thinking time indeed is leading to a result switch.
