Puzzle 11084 is wrong

You're right. There is a forced mate there but it takes a lot longer.
Yep, that's definitely a mistake. Things like that happen when automatically generated puzzles. It's goot to mention them though.
I just encountered it too, is it going to be changed?
The main reason of the confusion seems to be that the computer plays the wrong piece to the g3-square. Playing the bishop to g3 allows only Rxe1 and no more Qd5. (Bg3 is the computer's choice)
