Surprisingly even match. I remember Kai's test, that Lc0 scales badly. Not true? BTW with old adjucation rule +-6,50 is win it has been 50 - 50 end result! Was it changed to +-10 just because of Lc0?

I think there would have been tie breakers.

You can't ignore the fact that Lc0 beat SF +16=80-4 in the rapid bonus match. All they did was change the time control from 7200+15 to 720+3 and remove the opening book. The hardware and software involved stayed exactly the same as it was in the superfinal.

For some reason I do not see the pgn in a way that it is possible for programs to understand
I found it in the following site and it is written in a way that even after copy and paste my programs could not understand it.

What does "remove the opening book" mean? 100 games from the initial start position with no book for SF?
There are huge problems with doing that.

I have a script, which creates nice column style traditional pgn output from the TCEC format.
The file is attached. Note that I was too lazy to work around the unusual 'timeleft', thus only score/depth is included.

Games look like this (example):
