Interesting, thanks.

With 5-man EGTs, the tactic is to go for the P-promo, opting later for the R-sac
to dropshift to a won KRPKR endgame: mate on m99.  'The cost of certainty' is
12m.

Without, the chosen route is just to drive the passed Pawn: mate on m87.

The latter compares v favourably with the DTM-optimal mate, as provided by Rob,
on m86 with 6-man EGTs.
