Right.

Most chess programs cannot analyze positions when black has 7 promotions and 2
pawns.

Chessbase programs do not accept the position and the engine is not
important(after Board, Setup position,paste Fen I cannot tell the program ok.

I think that it is a bug in the chessbase interface because the interface is
made for many engines and it is possible that some of the engines have no
problem to analyze the illegal position.

I think that the interface should allow putting illegal position in the board
and I do not understand the decision not to allow putting illegal positions.
