Which one? The Stamma's Mate puzzle or this most recent one?
For the second-to-last puzzle, there were variations depending on how Black moved at the beginning which were shorter, but any variation in White's moves leads to mate in six or seven in my analysis rather than mate in five.
For the last puzzle, I don't know of any other sideline which guarantees mate by giving checks, which is necessary to stave off White's threatened checkmate.
But if you have other solutions, could you post them?
