But are they free to wish to lose the game?
Do you "choose" your desires (wishes) or do you simply follow them (like a slave)?
(IFF) the grandmaster wishes to win (THEN) they must always make their best move (like a robot).
(IFF) the grandmaster acts randomly, distracted and without the goal of winning (THEN) they will lose.
It's exactly the same as the physician and the janitor.
Would you prefer to be rescued by a trained professional (programmed and influenced by their training and experience which makes them unfree), or would your prefer to be rescued by a janitor who is just making everything up on the spot (perfectly free)?
I don't believe "freedom" (acting uninfluenced) is ever advantageous in this context.
