Before revision:  While it seems clear from the presented data that human players have indeed outperformed a particular implementation of the Krotov algorithm (and, according to [ sorensen16 } ], as a consequence also algorithms like CRAB CRAB and evolutionary approaches evolve which perform worse than Krotov), there is no reason to believe that this finding is of any particular significance.
