What would be interesting is if they limited the AI's ability to that of humans. Ie - simulate how fast a human could potentially group select and point-click, etc. Now THAT would be interesting.

Until then, yes as you put it, the AI would crush humans and unfairly so.

Build a set of robotic hands with human nervous system-like control inaccuracies and delays. Put it on a mouse and keyboard. Point a camera at the screen (tuned to match human visual acuity and eye movement speed and focal area), put headphones on a mic, let the AI play the way humans do.
