Rubik's Swap (Posted on 2021-06-01)

You own a traditional 3x3x3 Rubik's cube, with nine stickers on each of its six faces.

When you're not looking, a mischievous sprite randomly selects two stickers, peels them off and swaps their places on the cube. What is the probability that the cube can still be solved?
