    qe8+ would have picked up the dark squared bishop so that should be able to work.

    Same result, and arguably better position. But if the puzzle isn't going to lead to mate, why not harrassing the black queen instead?

    Because winning a piece is better?

    Also, after 1. Qe8+, Bf8; 2. what?

    You do win a piece: the bishop that got away in the "correct" version.

    EDIT: Ignore this. Misunderstood what you meant.
