I am explaining to you and the others as well who will read this. Maybe the opponent queen is weak or overloaded or doesn't have a defense or counterattack. Maybe our passed pawn will promote and give material advantage to us.
This still doesn't make any sense at all.
Maybe your pawn won't promote after all. Maybe you will get checkmated before the pawn promotes. Even if it promotes (which is a big "if"), it will be a queen, not more than a queen.
For example, there is a rook, a king, 2 passed pawns vs a king, queen and an undeveloped pawn. In this case, both of them will overload the opponent queen. One of our pawns will promote. Then, exchange and material advantage.
Absolutely not. In most positions, a queen + pawn combo wins easily against a rook and 2 pawns. No contest. Those 2 pawns have to be extremely close to queening to change that.
That's what I said. And technically, I mentioned the undeveloped pawn.
This is an example. It might occur someday. Activation of pieces really matters.
Now, if you still don't agree, fine! How about we discuss about the value of the pieces in these boards you see. Don't be surprised if it's not real. You have to judge the value of these pieces in these positions.
Fine, I will make it real to make sure you aren't surprised or confused. Now judge the value of these pieces. Just follow your mind if it is hard to judge.
A pawn is more valuable than a queen if it is a passed pawn.
This was your original post. No mention that the pawn can't be stopped. No mention that it's close to queening. It was just complete nonsense. Nothing will change that.
I said don't argue. And I completely understand. It is partially my and your fault. Next time, I will keep in mind. Detailed is the answer. Please stop arguing now. And, would you like to the judge the pieces in the latest position I sent?
Jahnavi-Shankar, on your position that you showed: if it's white's turn, they alredy have a queen in 1 move, it makes no sense to say that the pawn promotes into a queen, you already up a rook. But: if it's black's turn, I would argue about a winning position. Black's queen will permanently check you, and I don't see a way for white to escape all the checks, while keeping your pawns alive. Also, it seems weird to me that you say a pawn developed, because a pawn is not a single piece, that can be developed, and stay strong somewhere on the board
The second position you sent makes no sense, because white already up a piece, and their h-pawn is unstoppable. It makes no sense to say that white is completely winning
Fetorenczi, actually in most of endgames that envolve two rooks against one queen, it's a draw. Often wins a side that has a passed pawn, but this endgame is pretty much drawish
What i think:
1 King (The best, no King: No chess games)
2 Queen (Super powerfull piece!)
3 Rook
4 Bishop
5 Knight
6 Pawn

Good thinking, everyone. How about you judge the value of a good bishop and a bad bishop.
For example, there is a rook, a king, 2 passed pawns vs a king, queen and an undeveloped pawn. In this case, both of them will overload the opponent queen. One of our pawns will promote. Then, exchange and material advantage.
