i think the point of a puzzle its. given an aparently equal position make a secuence of move that will gain material or deliver mate. in this case the position its so winning that actually almost any move its good.

I sort of agree with this... up to a point.

However, there are very good puzzles where one side has huge material advantage. That is why your puzzle needs a STIPULATION, eg "white to play and win", or "mate in 3 moves"

And then, there has to be only one solution, if you say "White to play and win" and there are many first moves that achieve this, the puzzles fails.
