I don't think that specifies the time control does it?    So if a player
exceeds 15 seconds he starts to use one of his byoyomi periods?    How long
for the byoyomi phases?

I don't think 15 seconds per move average is bad for humans at all,  but if
you have to make each move in 15 seconds it's horrible and I can see that
this is going to make the computer really look good.

For making strength claims there should be some sort of standard.   You
could take almost any program and get 5 dan or more  by setting the time to
1 second per move.
