When the computer missed, it seemed to be for no good reason rather than because of my own skill. I think that in a 2-player competitive game, having your opponent make a random mistake just validates your own skill and attests to your superiority. And no-one minds that.

Lesson: CPU flaws need to lie in their limitations. Not in random screwups.
