The cushion against the repercussions of playing illegal moves in online chess makes learners weak at noticing illegalities during calculation, as they simply rely on the game to alert them. This habit builds sloppiness, especially when transferred to over-the-board (OTB) chess, where no such automatic safeguard exists. To encourage better learning, there should be a game mode where players can opt for stricter OTB-style rules: the first illegal move results in a warning, and the second illegal move results in disqualification.
