Am I the only one who sees that often items in the "Tasks" section have alternative solutions?

Am I the only one who sees that often items in the "Tasks" section have alternative solutions? However, only 1 move that happened in the game is considered correct here. And then points are deducted for the "wrong" decision. Doesn't this upset anyone?

For example, task #eFou8. MaxShil (1675)-
luka1965 (1686). 33.g5 also wins. But only 33.gh counts.

They're called puzzles, not tasks. Also did you deeply double-check that this one has two solutions?

I guess this is the common misunderstanding that you're looking for a winning move in the puzzle - the puzzle asks for the best move.

In the puzzle you mention, 33. g5 is a blunder as it's a draw only, only 33. gxh5 has a winning advantage.
