But a good, challenging, though not perfect ai? That's not impossible, it's already part of the game. And it gets better every year because improving it is always a priority for Markus. To help with that, posting any ai oddities you see in the bug report thread is encouraged, it's a good thing. No one should be discouraging others from doing that.
Beyond that, no one's saying that it's too hard to improve or fix the ai, just that it'll never be perfect.
