In iteration #19, DarkThought sees that all other moves except Na5!
loose.

PV: 1. Na5 bxa5 2. bxa5 Kd3 3. Kf4 Bc6 4. a4 Be4 5. Ke5 ... (score =
-3.15)

Because the bishop can move around like crazy, it will not produce a
real
draw score for a while -- however, it knows about the "drawing theme".

P.S.
Kd5 followed by a4! is another valid solution for position 1.
