Correct to double and correct to beaver

It is the Kauder Paradox, not the Jacoby Paradox.

In all the years I've played, I only once encountered a real life position in a money game that turned out upon rollout to have been a correct Double/Beaver as I suspected over the board. Unfortunately I lost the position with a crashed hard drive and can not remember it.

The bots training allows them to understand 99% of positions they encounter in normal play. This allows them to play at an extremely high level. On the other 1% they are often clueless. In the grand scheme of things, there are two problems: software development resources are limited and they have more important things to work on first; and neural nets are touchy - train them too much on the unlikely and they may lose clarity on the likely.
