If it says “checkmate in 3” its an actual checkmate, idk why but “winning” in puzzles means just “a big advantage”
EDIT: Yeah, I just downloaded and went through all the puzzles. Its the first one that isn’t a checkmate, you just win a big trade. Typically the harder puzzles aren’t about finding a mate always, sometimes it’s winning a piece or just getting a good fork/pin/position.
