Your argument is too general: it applies to any game. If I play chess against a Catholic, who deliberately throws the game in order to make a clever argument that succeeds in converting me to Catholicism, that counts as a win of some sort... but not a win in chess.
I think that this game is inherently about showing that your ideology is better than the one of the people on the other side. Chess is generally not played with that intent.
