The Draw

White is down and cannot mate, but can achieve a stalemate by repeated moves, as opposed to losing. This is a common theme at the higher level - Plan B, make a sacrifice, if your opponent does not handle the tactics well, you win. If your opponent finds an out, take the draw.

Unusual for this program to consider a draw by repetition.

Maybe it's how the particular exercise was composed and submitted. Maybe it's an improvement in the program, but I agree with the comment immediately above.
