I'm at this point in the game. Hint advised me to move my rook as shown as last move. Why didn't the bot simply capture my rook with it's rook? Instead, the king moves. Am I missing something obvious? Bot is advanced, rated 1800.

After 1. ... Rxd8 you would have c7+, getting the rook back and a queen in the process
