Most tactical problems involve a very strong tactical move, followed by lines
that lead to mate.

The original problem was like this, but the original analysis had a mistake,
which makes the outcome less clear.

Vincent is arguing that the key is still the best move, but that the win is
further out.  DT preferred a positional move instead.  I think Vincent would
argue that the key provides definite advantage, and other moves are not as
clear.

That's all you guys are arguing about.
