There's typically an extra layer (or more) with humans. "Because this puts your Bishop in wasabi which makes it harder for your opponent to extract his Kinglet, making it more likely to win."

Deep nets have layers too. We need to assign names to the nodes of the layers. That's the challenge of interpretability in neural nets.

Explanations for choices have nothing to do with nodes or layers.

No, it isn't, exactly or inexactly.
