no the score is negative.
It seems that Frenzee does not do pawn promotion in the qsearch.

My qsearch detects 1.d7 Rxc1 2.d8Q so I have not this stupid line.

Movei's buggy version can show positive score for d7 after search only at depth
13.

White is a pawn down after d7 Ke7 Rxc3 Rxc3.

I think that it is a mistake to give more than a pawn bonus for a pawn in the
7th.
