yes something seems to have gone wrong in the creation of that puzzle (perhaps it was a stockfish glitch in an earlier version when this puzzle was created). Also it helps when you actually link to the puzzle
I attempted 1... Qh1+ 2. Ng1 Nxe3 (if 3. Qxe3 Bxe3 evaluates as -14.9). The actual solution is mate in 3, which I agree is better but -14.9 seems winning enough.
I played 1. Rf5+ which the computer evaluates as +20. The actual solution is an immediate forced mate, but I'd like to imagine that with a +20 advantage I'd have decent winning chances.
@Toadofsky, while I agree that absolute winning positions shouldn't be frowned upon, I also feel that puzzles should stress the best paths which in those cases are mates.
