Im not complaining or anything but asking out of pure curiosity. Does FIDE believe this amount of games is closest to accurate for seeing who's best and that making the match longer is unnessecarry ?

         The answer,(out of pure curiosity) is labored about in 2 books. "End Game", by Frank Brady, and "Unlimited Challenge", by Garry Kasparov.

Neither sponsors nor players would want 24 games, those days are just past.
