If the "average" solver can reach a logical contradiction in their head without marking a pixel than I don't think of it as guessing. I think it should be considered moderate to deep lookahead. How many steps ahead is the cutoff between moderate and deep?

My understanding is that there is no specific number of steps. It's more of a general consensus.
