In this case i agree. Although Rag8 looks tempting as it gets all pieces in from of white's King, human should consider that it plays against a computer that sees everything and in wild tactical positions it's not easy or even impossible to outplay it. So a more careful approach was better. By the way what would you suggest instead if Rag8 ? A manoeuver like Bc8-Rb8-Rb7 etc bringing the Rook at g7 without a-Pawn be in danger would be stupid? I mean could white take advantage of the huge lost time of black doing all these, to make something good? I can't see what white can do if black don't allow him to do......
