Discussion
A chess program plays a series of pointless checks before losing material.
What is this behaviour called and how is it addressed?
Answer: A
Delaying an unavoidable loss past the last ply searched makes it invisible, and extending the search along forcing lines such as checks and captures is the standard remedy. A uniformly deeper search merely moves the horizon. Move ordering and hash tables address efficiency rather than this systematic misjudgement. Recognising a characteristic pattern of play as the signature of a known algorithmic defect is a diagnostic skill worth having.
