It is easy to solve it if you extend 2 plies for every single reply to check but
in that case you are going to have big problems in other positions.

I believe that there are good ideas to solve it and improve the program but
I do not consider it as very important and I prefer to keep my ideas for myself.

I estimate that my thing needs today 19 plies to solve it so it has no chance to
solve it practically.
I may improve it in the future in order to solve it at tournament time control
but I am going to be careful not to do my program weaker.
