I don't think your analysis makes sense, because seeing the first move is not relevant in most of these problems. For example, in the Lamford study:

If you spot the computer the first twelve moves and create this position:

My Stockfish still fails to see the key idea of Rc2 followed by Ka2 (at least for a few minutes until I got bored) -- it just wants to shuffle the rooks around forever.
I'm sure that some engines given enough time will solve some of these, but your check isn't accurately assessing their capabilities.
- zone411 5y agoNo, my Stockfish 13 definitely sees the right solution to 8/8/8/1k3p2/p1p1pPp1/PpPpP1Pp/1P1P3P/QNRKRN2 w - - 0 1 in less than 10 minutes. The score shoots up to over +20 in 6 minutes and it sees both Rc2 and Qa2. I generally looked at the winning lines, not just at the first moves. Any other positions where you think I was wrong?
