White wins easily by promoting and exchanging queens, but most comps can't see
it.
[d]8/5p1P/8/8/6K1/5P2/1k6/q7 w - -
Amateur failed to exchange queens, and drew the game. I'm not quite sure why,
seems like a simple search should be enough to handle this. Oddly, if the
exchange is forced, the win is seen immediately. This happens with other progs
as well. I thought I had taken steps to eliminate root-position dependencies in
the search, but maybe something else is happening.
