Why is bipedal required for running, but neuronal is not required for chess? These lines are arbitrary.

Exactly. Also people still watch bicycle race while they stand no chance against a motorcycle. Or woman soccer despite man would win easily.
It’s not required, we just don’t allow anything else because it would no longer be interesting at all. That’s the point. Same why we don’t watch grandmasters play computers; they lose. But humans vs humans is still a good watch.
