less than 3 moves positions

I didnt take a look at the code but I just had this position 5r1k/3Q4/3p3p/p1pP3P/3pB1R1/1P1Pb3/6K1/5q2 w - - 2 41 White has 2 moves in this position and no matter which one you take, you will still have made one of Stockfish's top 3 moves. This is kinda dumb in my opinion, since you get a forced multiplier.

But one of them awards x3 and the other is less than 3, right?

Yes, just that guess the eval maybe shouldnt have these kinds of positions with only 1-3 moves.

I'm in agreement that positions with only 1-2 valid moves should not be included. What about 3 moves? I think there is some value in including those.
