If it takes 19 ply to find that one move is really the best move (e5 better than
Nf3, for example), then it might take 19 ply to find out that Qg4 is better than
Qg6, or it could be that you're right and Qg6 is really better.  I'm not totally
convinced that a simple computer search from that position can tell us the right
answer, because both moves are probably winning, and it's obviously very deep.
