The video seems to show it "beating" the team without either using brooms, but both still playing a game. I.e. they all have stones in play at once and therefore there is theoretically strategy not just accuracy. Am I wrong? I don't know anything about curling. It seems fair to call this "beating" - just not fair to call it curling.

The implications from the title is that it beats them at curling. You certainly wouldn’t expect the article to be about a robot beating world class curlers at chess. If sweeping wasn’t such an important part of the game (literally changing shots, which world class curlers would rely on as part of their throw technique) then the article would be fine.
