While I understand what you are getting at here, basically, this is still just a complete information game, and didn't solve AI. You are drastically understating the complexity of Go. It isn't actually possible to evaluate a significant fraction of the state tree in the early mid game because the branching factor is roughly 300. The major advance of AlphaGo is a reasonable state scoring function using deep nets. Unless you have or are a PhD student in AI who has kept up with the current deep net literature I assure you that the whole of Alphago will be unintuitive to you. However, if you were an AI PhD student, you likely wouldn't be so dismissive about this achievement.
