We need to test all the programs in order to say that none can see it.

Some programs like dark thought are not available so we cannot know that none
can see it.

The fact that it is 60 ply repetition is not a proof that none can see it
because programs only to need the right extensions to see the relevant 60 plies
forward.

If you are wrong then testing only one program is enough to prove it.
