I understand that single-player game programs consist of roughly three parts:

1) Low-level graphics
2) "World" model
3) Bot AI

Aside from maintenance and code understandability, a clear separation between 
parts 1 and 2 is necessary for portability. OTOH a clear separation (and 
carefully filtered information traffic) between parts 2 and 3 is crucial for 
playability [1]

yes?

[1] When you hide behind a stone making sure no one sees [or hears and 
smells] you, but an alien bot finds you anyway, it's clear that you've been 
cheated.
