It's not hard for a trained puzzle solver. They see it in seconds! Carlsen must have tried to solve it in a taxi while chased by paparazzi. That's like playing chess with a handicap 9.

You have to either use a later version than SF8 or alternatively leave it to run for longer than 1/10 sec. or, failing that, set up the position correctly.

That only tells you Stockfish thinks it's mate in 3 not 2. You shouldn't believe everything engines say.
