Why is it that Lichess, and other engines for that matter, give a non-zero evaluation score on an endgame position that should be either a draw or a win for one of the sides (given perfect play)?

What is the score of engines Lichess endgame?

The static eval isn’t smart enough to realize that this game is a draw – keep in mind the static eval is supposed to work for all positions, so it’s not surprising that it doesn’t return a completely accurate score for this one. Accordingly the computer flatlines at -0.50, until the 50-move rule helps it prune to a draw.
