Puzzle question?

I wish it would show why a particular puzzle move is best. Sometimes it is quite obvious, but as the puzzles progress it becomes harder to see. Granted my highest puzzle rating isn't that great, only 1460, but as puzzles get harder, they aren't as obvious. Just telling us the best move isn't very helpful, if we can not see the reason why. The subsequent best engine responses would help shed some light on why it's best. Without this, just providing the best answer often isn't enough to teach anything. Real games can provide the best played responses, and the sequence of following best moves. So it obviously isn't beyond Chess.coms engine solving power. So why not puzzles? If it showed the best possible following move orders, you would understand why a move is best. This could be a great teacher, to improve all of our games. Perhaps there is a way to see it, but I don't know how?

The puzzles have an analysis option on them where you can look at lines.

I'll have to check that out. Thank you.

I would not call a 1460 puzzle rating as not being that great. Sounds pretty good to me. I am stuck in that terroritory. Cant seem to stay above 1500 when I get there.

Sometimes puzzles are extremely obvious to me and I’ll jump ahead 100 or more points. Then I’ll try on another day, and I’ll fall greatly. For example 1460 was my best, but I then fell to below 1000. At least I’m doing better now, and am 1313. Of course I had a very serious raumatic brain injury 30 years ago, so my results vary from day to day.
