Deepest unique problems

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

Deepest dual problems

Deepest dual with different first and last moves: h#6.5. The deepest dual overall is h#7.5, where the two solutions share a first or a last move.

h#6.5

8/8/6k1/8/N7/6n1/6P1/K7 w - - 0 1

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