I think that it is also easy for humans because white has no logical choice and
it is easy to see by elimination that other moves are bad.

Even at blitz time control the second best alternative Bg2 is rejected
immediatly when
Qf4+ gxf4 Bxf4+ Ka8 Nb6+ and maybe I have something is considered as better.
