The purpose of the puzzle is to find the private key given only 75% of it.
Let’s imagine that takes 1 year to brute force the last 25%. But if you have the public key as well, it only takes 1 minute.
As soon as the coins were sent, the private key was known since it inherently revealed the public key.
