A puzzle and a Red Hot Pawn game with Pendulum Rooks.

White to play and mate in two moves.
From round seven of the 2025 British Championship
why did Tarun Kanyamarala in this position as white
not play 22. Rxd8 Qxd8 23. Rxg4 Bxg4 24. Bxf6 Bxf6 25. Qxg4 winning a piece.
Do it your head, Tarun had too. He thought about it but played 22.Kg1 instead.
