If lines 1,2,3 are scoring 150,148,147 Then that engine sees little difference in the "quality" of the three moves. If lines 1,2,3 are scoring 150,-47,-53 Then that engine sees the first line as clearly best. The extent of the computations in these three lines was discussed in great detail here about 12 days ago (my next group of messages button is toggling so I can't find the message number) in a thread called "(something I don't remember) - BUT" frequented by Myself, Dr. Hyatt, Blass Uri, & others.
