So opponents should be able to "force-draw" the game in this position:

Nice way to throw some basic endgame theory and underpromotion studies out the window!

You're not reading my posts (that's not how I said forced draws would work) and you're being argumentative. Not a very interesting discussion to be a part of.

I know you said only if engines could determine there was no win, but then where do you draw the line? What if there's a forced win in 17? Humans playing shouldn't have games decided based on the analysis of engines.
