If you're talking about the average number of "blunders" that a GM of a certain
level is allowed to make, then this also hints the gap that computers cannot
fill to become GM. Notwithstanding the official regulations regarding GM norms,
real GMs exhibit the behaviour to acknowledge a "blunder" and learn from it.
They have the knowledge to see the error, if only afterwards. They can admit it
was a mistake because the know it was one. Computers however cannot admit to a
mistake, for they will play the same blunder again and again, just because of
lack of knowledge. They simply don't know better. This imho sets apart the
programs from the flesh.
