Default Chessmaster feature

I like to play chess but I don't study the game. I would like to be able to
start a game with Chessmaster and have an option to tell
Chessmaster........Don't make that move but make the next best one.

This would give me a chance to play an opening without having to remember
what comes next.

Anyone else think this would be useful?

Why not use its perfect theory knowledge to improve your opening play
without having to study? Just play games as well as you can and you
will find the moves that work well.

You say that like it would be impossible to implement.
Having the computer make a less strong move, to me, would be a useful
feature.
