Let's say, for the sake of jihad, that we define sensible moves in the following manner: From a given FEN position, look at what every GM who has ever visited that position has done. From the same FEN position, let every top commercial and amateur program examine that position for 24 hours. At this point, we would have, I suspect, a small list of possible very good moves, a mid sized list of so-so moves, and a large list of bad moves.
