Deepest dual problems

Deepest dual with different first and last moves: h#7. The deepest dual overall is h#7.5, where the two solutions share a first or a last move.

Only one distinct idea exists at this depth: 2 positions share a solution.

h#7

8/8/B7/8/K7/8/P6k/1q6 b - - 0 1

Two solutions, with different first and last moves (2 starts, 2 ends).
