The Mad Queen variant is not really 'wrong' or 'damaged'. It is just
simply becoming 'simplified' in the collective consciousness.

Eventually(not tomorrow), it will be superseded by another variant(just as
it superseded previous variants during its time). What that one will be is
totally conjecture at this point in time.

But allow me to conjecture(or predict). The 'next chess' could be 3D.
This is simply a logical extension of the wargame. Will it be a 3D
extrapolation of the Mad Queen variant? Or some other creature entire.

Let the argument continue(hopefully rational). Maybe we'll dig this gem
from our brains one day. ;-)
