2015-12-04 "Who decides the "10 min." or "30 min." from what kind of standard" ? [長年日記]

The other day, there is a TV variety show, whose name is "Hoko-Tate".

"Hoko-tate" means "contradiction" and it is one of the most famous japanese idioms.

This program showed us a duel of more than two sophisticated machines or "the master" of a field each other. From the view of the science and engineering major, I enjoyed this program as

"just an entertained TV program"

I thought that the duel rules were funny.

For example,

"If the master can break the safe in ten min., the master win the duel. if not the producer of the safe win the duel"

"If this sophisticated drill can penetrate the super-alloy panel in 30 min., the drill wins. If not, the panel wins"

Don't you think

"Who decides the "10 min." or "30 min." from what kind of standard" ?

If the time is changed half or twice, the winner and loser can change easily.

Is that a duel without a basic ground?

I told the above story to my daughter who is in the seventh grade,

She looked at me like "this man is now in youthful indiscretion even now."
