Hmm! Okay, 4. e6# is better than 4. Be6, Kxe6; 5. Qf7#, but only in Chess Tactics. In the 'real world' a win is a win, and some credit should be given for a slightly inferior solution, rather than a reduction in ones rating!

Well, yes, I know it's annoying to see the big reduction to our point because of the lesser good solution...
But perhaps it may become a good exercise for us to do things efficiently.

(notes, I also often lose a lot of points for the same case)
