    Honestly, I think NL could easily make it to 1600 if he played more slow chess and practiced taking time to calculate a bit more. Slow chess would really help improve some of the weaknesses: like not taking advantage of his opponent's one move blunder like hanging a piece, losing a completely drawn endgame, or losing tempi in the opening and middle game for no reason.
