Clone Hero leans harder on execution: Community charts push fretting speed past official games

Reads0 vs 0

Even - both lean on reads about the same.

Variance0 vs 1

Skate 2 leans harder on variance: Static city, deterministic physics

Optimization4 vs 4

Even - both lean on optimization about the same.
