So moving all-in if the SC numbers indicate it is not an optimal strategy by definition? Not being able to make a mistake looks very optimal to me.

This brings up the question "What is the goal of Poker?" (don't say "to win money" now). Botvinnik defined the goal of Chess as trying to win material (not to mate the king). Is the goal of Poker trying to exploit the mistakes of your opponent or trying to avoid making mistakes yourself?
