the grammar of a programming language is just as well defined. And the defined-ness of the "game" isn't required for my argument.

Your concept of thinking is the classic retoric - as soon as some "ai" manages to achieve something which previously wasn't capable, it's no longer AI and is just xyz process. It happened with chess engines, with alphago, and with LLMs. The implication being that human "thinking" is somehow unique and only the AI that replicate it can be considered to have "thinking".
