I guess that for the positions where blue has problems it is depth, since it takes a long time to go deep.
For these last 11 only 3 were solved (c9 shows outcome of 2 hour search with 63 threads):

To see if the issue is depth, I am running the problems at one hour using bleeding edge SF to see if depth solves the trouble makers.
Taking ideas is not a vice, it is a virtue. We have another word for this. It is called learning.
But sharing ideas is an even greater virtue. We have another word for this. It is called teaching.

Some comments about the 8 positions :

Only Sting-SF finds this 2 fortresses and trapped piece :
2b1r3/r2ppN2/8/1p1p1k2/pP1P4/2P3R1/PP3PP1/2K5 w - - bm Nd6+; id "Hard-Talkchess-2020.033"; c9 Nh6+;

Pure tactics :
1rb2r1k/3p1pp1/p3p2p/1p2P3/4q3/1N2B1R1/PPP1N1P1/2KR1B2 w - - bm Nf4; id "Hard-Talkchess-2020.026"; c9 Nd2;

Queen trapped :
4q1kn/2Bp1p2/1N1PpPp1/1P2P1P1/2N3b1/6p1/1P4Pb/7K w - - bm Na5; id "Hard-Talkchess-2020.077"; c9 b3;

Only CorChessV6 finds it in a reasonable time :
Nq3n1k/8/P1p2Npp/2Kp3R/pp6/n3p3/8/4Q3 w - - bm Nc7; id "Hard-Talkchess-2020.131"; c9 Rxh6+;

A lot of engines find this one (maybe a null move problem ?) :
n1QBq1k1/5p1p/5KP1/p7/8/8/8/8 w - - bm Bc7; id "Hard-Talkchess-2020.135"; c9 gxh7+;

Very tactical CorChessV6 like it fast. May be Bluefish-FD-XI is right and this move is over evaluated ? May be not ?

Stockfish-dev seems to agree that d6 is "best":

I guess that d6 is best, but the other moves would get some points on a varadic scale.
Taking ideas is not a vice, it is a virtue. We have another word for this. It is called learning.
But sharing ideas is an even greater virtue. We have another word for this. It is called teaching.

Very tactical CorChessV6 like it fast. May be Bluefish-FD-XI is right and this move is over evaluated ? May be not ?

Stockfish-dev seems to agree that d6 is "best":

Don't forget to enable tablebase files. I would have tens of billions of tablebase hits by ply 55 here
