UCI of course includes the times on the same line as "go", which is much less ambiguous.


In case of the times this is true, but it does not solve the other problem. Because the moves and go are still on separate lines. So if there is an illegal move in the position-moves command, the "go ..." command would already have been sent before the engine can complain about the illegal move. Also in UCI there is no acknowledgement of the moves when they are OK, so you would have to force your own by sending "isready" after "position-moves" and wait for the "readyok" before sending "go ..."
