Subject:
BrainKing Backgammon is standard 1-point Backgammon

I don't agree that the flaw is in the name of the game.
BrainKing Backgammon is standard 1-point Backgammon.
Here's the logic behind that statement.
1]
If the ability to make the move in question were part of BrainKing Backgammon then it would be a feature of the game.
True or false.
2]
If the move was a feature then the server wouldn't need to protect against it.
True or false.
3]
The fact that the server doesn't protect against it has been acknowledged as a bug.
This is undeniable.
4]
As the ability to make this move is an artefact of a bug then it's not a feature.
True or false.
5]
If it's not a feature and it's due to a bug, then the move is illegal.
True or false.
6]
If the move is illegal then BK Backgammon
is
standard 1-point Backgammon, but with a flaw in the implementation.
True or false.
7]
If BK Backgammon is standard 1-point Backgammon then making the illegal move that the server fails to prevent is against the rules.
True or false.
For me it's True all the way down and I don't know how you can see it any other way; perhaps you can show me what's wrong or missing.
