Notably, Fabiano Caruana achieved his peak rating while he still was an Italian player. He now plays for the United States, as his dual citizenship allows.

I'm actually there, if you look closely.
Also, many people, like Spassky and Petrosian, beat Fischer in his prime. In fact, Petrosian outplayed Fischer for the first half of their Candidates match in 1971, in spite of the equal score after five games.

Well, the point isn't beating someone once, but consistently, which is essentially what Elo ratings represent. I thought that was implied.

Yes. Carlsen would score very decently against Fischer. Many draws, but more wins than losses. The players of today are considerably stronger than the players of the sixties or seventies.

Yow.

That's in the scenario that Carlsen goes back in time.
Fischer with access to modern computer chess tactics (you seem to understand the game so I won't bother explaining how important these are) would consistently fare better against Magnus than the other way around.

It seems to me that you are well aware of the merits of Bobby Fischer, but do you understand how good Carlsen really is? Fischer was the clear #1 of the early seventies much thanks to his diligent work with opening preparation, but nobody had computers, and there were fewer players of world-class playing strength. Being the clear #1 when there are many more world-class players, all of whom have access to strong computers to help prepare, is a much greater feat.
this is OP

We will simply never agree on this, since I'm a firm believer that while a future prime Carlsen might beat prime Fischer with access to computer prepared openings, current Carlsen would still find himself losing more often than he won.
please explain to me how there are poo in loos and eastern europoors that are great chess players but japan and shitain dont
