> Making some illegal moves doesn’t invalidate the demonstrated situational logic intelligence
That’s exactly what it does. 1 illegal move in 1 million or 100 million or any other sample size you want to choose means it doesn’t understand chess.
People in this thread are really distracted by the medical analogy so I’ll offer another: you’ve got a bridge that allows millions of vehicles to cross, and randomly falls down if you tickle it wrong, maybe a car of rare color. One key aspect of bridges is that they work reliably for any vehicle, and once they fail they don’t work with any vehicle. A bridge that sometimes fails and sometimes doesn’t isn’t a bridge as much as a death trap.
