1. Bxf7+ was not included in the search because a forced mate was located first. The search concludes as soon as a forced result at the root is detected. The mate search does not attempt to find faster mates after a sure mate of any length is discovered.

No claim is made that the mate attack/defend metrics are good for anything other than mate attacks and defenses.

It means that Qxf7+ is ordered before Bxf7+.
It is counter intuitive and as a human Bxf7+ is the first move that I look at it.

If you use SEE to decide about order of moves then
Bxf7+ seems better than Qxf7+.
