I didn't say anything of Bxg6, this was your own idea. The programs I tested,
which understand the wrong bishop situation here, did not plan Bxg6; I haven't
tried it myself.
It's not a problem (study) at all btw., I took it from an old training game
where I played ...h5 before as a trick for a draw, because a knew the opponent
wouldn't understand it. It was Fritz 4.
The point is that gxh5 draws immediatly, while other moves keep the game going
with possible chances without obvious risk for white (?). If crafty would think
white is in danger, it would play gxh5 - unless black has a better continuation
than ...Nxf4 - to draw. But it doesn't, neither any other program which
understands the draw.
