OK; an engine can see that 1.h5+ is better simply because it can see the
promotion. Let's look at the position after 1.b3?? h5:
[D]8/p7/6k1/1p2p2p/1P2P2P/1PP5/5K2/8 w - -
Can any engine _understand_, whatever we mean by that, that this is a draw?
(When I said that I thought brute force wasn't enough, I was refering to
this question.) For simplicity, I will accept that an engine "understands"
that this is a draw if the score drops below, say, 0.3 pawns...
