Yes, maybe it is bug.
Czolgista it is not very advanced engine.

I don't know what is selectivity 0 in Fritz but
CM9000 can find it at depth 10 it is a little shallower,
but maybe it is knowledge

>help programs to find it at depth 8

Yes, MultiCut is about prunning but null move also can't help find solution
on lower depth. I think MultiCut is less aggressive than null move maybe.
Of course it is only speculation.
