If white plays b5-b6 then black plays Rc7, if white plays Rc8xc7 that would be white’s second move and its not mate, if white plays Nd4-b5++ (a double check by whites knight and queen) then black plays Kxc6 and avoids checkmate in two.

Plays out the same, except if Bxc6+ then Rxc6#. Or am I just sleepy? What am I missing if it looks to me like b5-b6 accomplishes the same thing?
