Subject: ELO rating for chess programs?

  Imagine some aliens come to Earth and decide living among us. Imagine they
learn chess rules and, after some time, they play fine.
  Imagine their brains are far different from ours, they have a very strong
memory but weak inference capabilities. Imagine they become good players, but no
as strong as human world champion.
  Imagine they ask us for playing in human tournaments, such as world
championship, and for being included in ELO list.
  Would we let them do those things?
  Should we let chess programs do those things?
