Your aggrieved tone begins to make some sense, but it’s hard to make out your logic over the grinding of your axe.

If you don't want to deal with an unobtrusive advertisement/optional donation button, no one's obligating you to watch TCEC. In any case, you seem to be the only one taking issue with TCEC generating ad revenue from their website.
Many people have problems, they just can't be honest and write it down.

Let's not mix human and chess engine tournaments. These are two different things.
What is the difference (in terms of operational cost)?

Fat Titz by Stockfish, the engine with the bodaciously big net. Remember: size matters. If you want to learn more about this engine just google for "Fat Titz".
