Yes, Div3 is a very good competition in sporting terms.
Still, how many genuinely good games do two 180ish strength players produce against each other? I've plenty of first hand experience by now
We're good enough to normally play stuff that is recognisable as reasonable chess, but a bit short of being able to really sustain creative tension. Maybe around 1 in 10. I've managed a few flashy wins in the 4NCL, not much I'd really call good chess.

My analyses have always been strong on description and short on chess
