There is a question.
It is not clear that chess is complicated enough.

It is also not enough to see 200 plies forward.
A game can be finished with a short repetition when both sides did not do
mistakes.

You need also to play for the best practical chance to win and looking 200 plies
forward is not going to help in this problem.

200 plies are also not a practical expectation in the next 200 years.

I believe that programs can solve chess in the time that programs can see 200
plies forward and to have the 32 piece tablebases that say for every position
draw,win or loss.
