I partly disagree.

More engines of course can be an advantage and also long analysis can be an
advantage but I believe that fritz9 is not the best engine for analysis and I do
not need all engines.

I think fruit is not worse than fritz9 for analysis.
I also think that not having long line is not a big disadvantage(but it is a
disadvantage).

I do not use engines only for long analysis but most of the computer time that I
use is long analysis.
