No.622 by Ladislav Packa – Short, but interesting idea showing Disparate condition in PG problem! (JV)
Definition:
Disparate: If one side makes a move with a piece of type “x” (black, white,neutral, half-neutral, etc., King included), the other side cannot answer immediately by moving a piece of the same type “x”.). A pawn promoting is a pawn move. (Popeye’s interpretation)

Interesting. But the fairy condition merely eliminates cooks!
They all seem to be thematic tries here.
White and Black have to play exactly the same moves. Each side has 5 possible sequences (the S move can occur at any half-move, the others are fixed), but the condition dictates that only one sequence works for each side – and it’s not the same sequence. The necessary distance between White and Black is kept by having Black playing the S move first, and White playing it last.
The idea clearly justifies the condition.
