So many people get miss led that high level players calculate alot like 9 moves., but it is not true because it’s just impossible(it is possible for Hikaru, but no one has Hikaru’s skill) and you might just forget it. And no 2000 can spot mate in 9-15 even if they are given a year to do so because of all the variations and you have to meorize where the pieces are which are hard. The things that gms do is to see positional moves like trying to get a piece to a good square or trying to ruin the pawn structure or something like that. Just don’t get miss led by that.

Reaching 2000 is an excellent and widely respected milestone that places you in a very high percentile of chess players. While the deep calculation claims might be a slight exaggeration, I always tell my students that what this rating truly signifies is a solid, well-rounded understanding of all phases of the game.

I'm 2400+ (online) and I can do neither of those things.
I can calculate about 2 to 3 moves ahead. And I can find mate in 4 or 5, at the most.
What you're describing is more like something a strong Grandmaster could do ...
Reaching 2000 is more about making basic, fundamental moves to improve your position, jumping on simple 1 or 2-move tactics, and avoiding any serious blunders.
