Subject: Any engine forced to motivate a big winning score by giving a line/idea?

Hello,

is there any engine that is forced to motivate (or showing to be reasonable) a
big winning score (e.g. +- 10.0) by giving atleast a single variation that leads
to a mate?

This variation doesn't have to be PV with oponent defending best. I rather think
of a way to win the game against a no defending oponent just making null moves.
This should be first step into direction of creating plans....
(ofcourse just first step)... and making things like in the following example
impossible:

[D] 8/2qk3b/3Bp1p1/1p1p1pPp/pPpPPP1P/P1P1K3/8/8 b - - 0 1
