When I'm playing computer and place a taken chick on the far rank the opponent resigns, I'm not sure why ?!
I don't know at all why that is but at least the dobutsu computer (on lower levels) resings if you are one move away from being beaten by the computer. So I don't know if that is related to what you are experiencing.
It happens even on level 10 too very strange! I've read that it's not a great move anyway but I see it can be taken, maybe a bug ?
Oh I see I tried it on level 8 too and the computer decided to resing. So yes it is consistent across players.
That is very strange. My random guess is that because the chick has no possible legal move, stockfish has some kind of freak out and resigns.
EDIT:
Actually, wait. I think it's a lishogi bug. When I use the analysis board, Stockfish is able to analyze it, but when I try to create a lishogi study from the game below, it kicks me out to a standard shogi board and there's a error message (partially cutoff) underneath that says this:
"lishogi: KIF parsing error: Unknown role in move: ２二ひよこ(23) (variant - Va…"
