I'm sure things at that level are much hotter than we realize.    Seems to be that the plan is ultimately to simultaneously have the evil people COMPLETELY unveil themselves as who they are so that all but the most delusional will have no choice but to recognize what's been going on.  Even the "not making moves" are still "moves", and even the level that's clear to us is heating up, and with being that big of a job, can reasonably assume that the bad guys are hoping for new posts to try and gather some potential hint that might help them.  The longer this drags on the easier it will be to push red pills.    There's video about "alpha go" vs the best AI at chess, one game I watched, there were 3 points in the game that nearly went to stalemate conditions to build up.  (Not implying that anything Google touches is good, but AI playing chess is going to be neutral)
