Yes , just my knight was on e3 the e-file would've then been opened through discovery by the knight retreat to g4 and the rook just would've swung around from e8 to e1 to h1 with the queen making it to h4 . Only unlike in your one , the bishop wasn't taken in my one and the knight could've swung next move provided the rook on e8 wouldn't be hanging and then we'd have the same position .
