Not a checkmate puzzle.

Stared at it way too long, kept trying to find checkmate. An even trade wasn’t something I was looking for.

The trade is not even. White is utterly winning in this position, with a rook pair and insane bishops, and a completely open king while Black has only a queen out.

with d5 and f7 clogging the light squares, there's clearly no mate.
In the middle game, 3 pieces for a queen is usually better. In the endgame, not so much.
But then we have a rook in lieu of a bishop, an active position and better pawns so this is completely winning.
