Defending vs. a 1/3 backgame

O.K., I see the argument, but it does still strike me as odd. For example in a straight non-contact race, I wouldn't say that either player is "defending" against the opponent's strategy. "Defense" to me implies that the opponent is "attacking." "Defend" is narrower than "beat" (or "counter," the term I'd use in preference to your "beat"), just as "attack" is narrower than "beat."
