Go and chess playing are not, in fact, about "keeping your options

This is exactly what has been bothering me about this equation since I
first heard about it. [...] It is no use keeping options open if you
aren't going to take advantage of them when the time comes.
And knowing when to do that is a whole different dimension of intelligence.
That seems well put. There's more to intelligence than "keeping your options
open".
This proposed redefinition seems counter-intuitive and unhelpful to me.
