Humans used to think that the KBBKN endgame was drawn once the King and the 
knight managed to build a certain "fortress" position, because they couldn't 
"see" how that fortress could possibly be broken.
When that endgame was solved by brute force calculation, it turned out that the 
humans had been wrong.
So in effect, you are proposing to use an unsound procedure to "solve" a 
mathematical problem ;).

Janosch.
