When Carlsen was 2882, it seemed quite conceivable. But now, at 2859, it seems pretty remote, especially considering he is probably about at his prime now and further years will probably not show an increase in strength, but a slow and eventual decline. But who knows.

I'm not sure about your video link. it contains some faulty information, such as:
"At 1800 you can rate yourself as an expert at chess".
"Class "B" takes the hardest work to reach"
"The Road to Hell is paved with good intentions"

You are correct, but once you master most of your favorite openings and get better in the Middlegame and Endgame stages your rating start rocketing to the Top, that is what Nalamura has to say about this young talent from India :roll:
