I always had the feeling that the menu was fixed and that the professional just filled it in. Also, it would seem unwise for a top professional player to let on that he is spending a lot of study time on an opening that is not often seen in professional play. Keeping your opponent in the dark seems important, especially when the number of opponents is so limited.
