As Wolfgang Pauli once said:  This isn't right.  It's not even wrong.

What you say above is utterly meaningless, confused, and unintelligible.
There are many different ways to interpret your two lines above, but they all
have two things in common:  They are incorrect, and they have no relevance
whatsoever when trying to explain why your Shredder gives incorrect output
when analysing the position we are discussing.

No, this can never happen, unless the program has a bug, or the operator
makes an error.
