As far i understand the position the move you needed here was a Knight move. By playing Bg4 you allow black to take them (with their queen) without any compensation after all captures.
So there's nothing like numerical superiority except the 2 vs 1 on your knight.
For the engine these are the kinds of situations where simplifying is more preferable than pressing.
