Yes, that's probably true and maybe an overdose, but I never claimed to be
perfect or infallible. At least I don't make assumptions about the shortcomings
of Diep. That's another good advice while we're at it.

Now back to chess. In my ignorance I missed the fact that 14.e4 also sacrifices
a piece. My chess abilities are not sufficient to evaluate if Nxd5 or e4 is
best.

Either way, here's the output:

r1q1kb1r/p2n1p1p/b1p2np1/1p1p1NB1/3P4/1QN3P1/PP2PPBP/R4RK1 w kq - 0 14

About 19 minutes of analysis. I may try to run an analysis after Nxd5 and see
what Gandalf thinks.

Best wishes...
