Is my presumption correct that Stockfish is analyzing every move on all puzzles in real-time?
If so, the "best moves" really are the best moves and any questions arising about why a particular move is a best one and why another one makes no sense are due to lack of chess experience.
I frequently struggle with understanding why a particular move makes sense. For example pawn to a5 in the opening number 603: http://en.lichess.org/training/opening/603
I understand when one moves them in order to prevent an opponent's knight from forking, but in this particular opening puzzle like in many others that's not the case yet pawn to a5 is still a best move.
Does anybody have an explanation for why this is a best move?
