A.Buchanan: I like Ladislav's fix a lot. I humbly suggest r2b2b1/1pkq1RPQ/1p1p2B1/6PR/3p4/8/4K3/6N1 saving two units. Some might say wSg1 is too passive for a White officer, but the way two units (bP & wK) block three rows is sufficiently amusing to offset this, imho. (2023-06-06)
A.Buchanan: The authors fixed it very well with P0523513 so any later fix is pointless. (2023-06-13)

White pawns have captured 9 times right-to-left, accounting for all but one missing Black unit. So by parity, there were no other pawn captures by White. So wBb never left that file, and Black cannot have just played Bb3xa2 behind it. sBa was waylaid on a-file by an officer.

So if Black moved last, it must have been Ke8 or Th8, and Black has lost castling rights.

On the other hand, if White moved last, then Black needs a tempo move. The only possible one is ep capture. (1. Tg8+? is check.) But the ep capture is only legal if Black retains castling rights, so Black's second move must indeed be 0-0 for A Posteriori justification.

In this case, last moves were R: 1. b2-b4 b3xDa2 & e.g. 2. Le3-d4,~ b4-b3 3. d4xSc5,~ Sa6-c5,~ with many ways for White to release Black.
Corrects P0000615.
