Weird Engine Analysis

I’ve been wanting to post something abt this, and it’s been happening for a while now, so ig here’s a forum on it.

Whenever I look at the engine analysis after a certain game, usually when one player is winning by a lot, the engine acts weird, especially for the losing side. It’ll say moves that are just bad moves are “good” or even “excellent” in some cases. In the case of this game, when my opponent hung her queen, the engine marked it as a “good move”, but when I configured the move Rxa4, the engine put it as a blunder bc of the fork on e8, losing the rook.

In simplistic terms, the engine says that going down 2 points of material is considered a blunder, while hanging a queen is “good”. It’s very confusing and I was curious if this has happened to any of y’all in the past (or recently).

Thx
