> If you regularly choke in completely winning endgames, you'll never get there.

Except we're talking about moves where no human player would choke because they are basically impossible to lose except by playing at random (which is what the bot does).

It makes no sense to try and compare to a human player in the same situation because no human player could at the same time end up in such a position against a strong opponent and be unable to exploit them once there…

It's basically a bug, and what they did is just working around this particular bug in order to have a releasable paper.
