Yes, exactly.
The feeling among the go players I know is that the match had been kind of a setup for the human to win.
It's an equivalent of playing in chess with a bishop handicap and a computer playing deterministic chess so that a human can prepare a forced sequence into a winning endgame.
Shin is an absolutely amazing player and not anyone could have achieved that, but nobody really feels like he won vs a computer team that tried its best.
