I'm sure there are loads of threads scattered around discussing various quirks of the AI, how it could be improved, whether it should be improved (maybe some people prefer being able to beat it more easily) and how to exploit its idiosyncrasies.  Wouldn't it make sense to have a dedicated section for these discussions.  That would also make a useful resource for developers who are working on improving the AI.
The only thing of which I am certain is that I am certain of nothing

The OP already acknowledges that this thread and others of its kind exist.

I could potentially see a section being created for this I guess.  If there's a section created for Reporting Bugs in the game and there's about as many rooms for improvement of the AI as there are bugs, then why not.

However, I will say that by doing this there would be the potential for a lot more double-posting of threads.  And I don't mean threads reporting the exact same scenario, but anything such as relating to how the AI has poor judgment in targeting creatures with just about any spell or ability practically deserve one thread.  With a lack of common sense or searching already being displayed in the Report a Bug section, this concerns me quite a bit.

It's possible, I just think it would require a rather large amount of planning, brainstorming, and above all else time to make happen.
