Now we have a better choice than the default of Stockfish 16!!!!

Note: I think it's still the same weakish game review commentary on the moves. but that's for other programmers to deal with:| That needs a nice overhaul.

Were you expecting a solution at depth 22? Yes. SF gets it after 15 plies. I waited until 31 ply - no solution. To be fair some positions were solved faster than SF. BTW is free version running with one core?
