I only know that Grok did not find it for a tactical reason.

The latest movei needs some minutes on p800 to see that
Nb2 is bad(losing 2.2 pawns).

It believed that Nb2 gives black a small advantage
at smaller depth.

It failed high at Bc5 at that depth and did
not solve the fail high at the moment of posting.
