Should Themes Trump Logic - Code Geass' Chess Treatment

I love Code Geass hard stop. But it's not perfect, certainly it weighs story above common sense at points which results in some hilarious moments - but is the infamous illegal chess move one of those points? What does this tell us about the way that chess is treated in Code Geass, what the hell is artistic license have to do with it and why don't I care about this scene at all? All of those questions and more.
