It is truly remarkable that the Guanaco is only 0.25 stronger than the
Alpaca. But I believe now that it could be correct. It is easy to overestimate movability which lacks capture-capability.  Thanks for the investigating job! So I have some tweaking job to do in my Zillions programs, to lower its value. Tip: In Zillions the pawn's value can be increased somewhat by adding yet another rook or queen, etc. to the list of promotion pieces. It doesn't change the rule if it is allowed to promote to 'queen or queen'. I don't understand why you haven't purchased this wonderful software. It's only $20.
