What is perfection? Playing the best moves always? Completely impossible to
let it finish thinking about one single move before you grow old and die.

And what is very close to perfection?

If you want excellent and super GM analysis, hire a super GM. Or let
Shredder 6 or Fritz 7 run for a few days on the position. The result
should be pretty good.

But perfect? No way.
