As a human i agree. i searched with a version with no dangerous
extensions obviously. latest experimental one. can see it from the
output even. just 2 k7 cpu's that's all.

But if i go make a few moves i see a possible win is anything but
easy. For sure it is deep and needing EGTBs (which i haven't turned
on in this version of course as my windows gets too slow then and
machne requires a reboot).

My program is just evaluating it as i want it to evaluate it. The
stupid rook on g2 however seems to assure white from losing here.
Probably i misevaluate the thing there as being not too bad
instead of being worth a pawn.

However it is still far from easy to proof this to be a win if it is
anyway. I will not draw conclusions about it. It is a typical computer
position. Why do you care you played nxh4 here?

To proof white to be not drawing is very deep.

If diep would have a similar position like this in a game,
the rook of white would be better placed. White has at least
a draw then. Perhaps even a win.

So i don't care basically despite the position being interesting for
seeing the *entire* win for black. That's pretty deep however. I'm not
going to modify my evaluation for a computer position.

Best regards,
Vincent
