The average person doesn't understand chess. They don't understand the rules or how it's played.
This allows for people to play in cheap ways and use exploitative tricks that the layperson wouldn't observe as such. This is like your parents walking in on you playing video games and not understanding why your throwing your controller at the wall
In other sports arenas such as tennis, basketball, etc. it's different.
Unfortunately though in video games it has evolved. In chess it hasn't.
