It's also why the pro players I've known insist on playing speed chess in casual games with people on the same level Just like speeding up a video game, it adds a little bit of forced randomness, a chance to fuck up and have to deal with a mistake

in fact making a mistake and recovering from it the best you can is a lot more interesting and challenging than playing a perfect game every time.
