How is it helpful? Queen against two rooks is not a sure win :-\

White should win easily The Queen will capture at least two black pawns while the rooks get organized and connected; Black has NO mating attack since the white king is well protected; then all it has to do is push two connected pawns to promotion and then it will be over soon!

True, but Black's King is located in the center. Checkmate is not far away.

Also, the computer rates this to the advantage of White.

How do you get a computer to rate a position :/?

Stupid solution.

Do you want win the game in two moves or kill the queen in too many moves?

1. QXh7+ Kf8, 2.Qh8 check-mate

Actually, after 1. Qxh7+, black plays 1..., Kxh7 and your whole plan falls apart. If you want to argue stupidity, your solution is more stupid than the puzzle's.
