There are at least 100 threads about the Nelson bot.
Congrats on beating that bot. Now, if you don't mind me giving you some advice, forget most of what you've learned about how to defeat it. Most of it is useless and sometimes even harmful to your chess development. Nelson like chess induces bad habits, like having to make ridiculous moves just to stave off an ultra aggressive idiotic player. Don't get me wrong, I celebrate that you defeated it, but I seriously suggest you forget it exists from now that on.
Nelson is an example of bots work. I believe they need to meet an average centipawn loss over a span of moves. Meaning if they play really good moves, they need to play bad moves to make up for it. If you just hold on tight and develop properly nelson will eventually blunder. Of course, You should also avoid Nelson's belligerent attacks unless you know you can wriggle your way out with a somewhat decent position

Learning to look at the threats the opponent's move makes and defend against them is "useless and sometimes even harmful"?

More like, being obsessed about having to track down a stupid queen at all times.

I think that they means the tactics effective against nelson are not effective against stronger bots and players. But the skills of seeing threats is useful.
Nelson is just a bot, if you think beating a bot who moves the queen out early is an accomplishment, then I am not sure what your meaning of an accomplishment even is!
That's the spirit of the people in this community. Never a word of encouragement. That's how people roll in this community. Openly disparaging everybody and respecting nobody. Congratulations on reaching such a high level of petulance.
Hi! My name is Lauren Goodkind and I’m a respected chess coach in California!
Keep up the good work! He can be tricky with his queen sometimes!
