If you get last place at the air guitar championship it’s unreasonable to complain by saying that you played the solo more correctly than anyone else.
You might be right.
Your fingers might have mimicked the solo perfectly as if it were being playing on a real guitar.
But being better at knowing the solo isn’t what is going to win you first prize.
In music (and in art) we are rarely moved by correctness.
We are moved by connection.
