You do not specify what behavior you see that you did not expect / desire. But I did notice that it doesn't allow you to defer promotion by selecting a Pawn: the Pawn is not highlighted. I think that is because you specified the ID for Pawn as a lower-case 'p', but mention an upper-case 'P' in the promoChoice.

The !P in the promoChoice probabbly doesn't do what you want here, as it will disable the Pawn on the rank of brouhaha squares (which it considers the last rank). There is no notation to disallow a choice on the last two ranks. But it probably doesn't do any harm if the P is available even at the point where it would have no move left. No one would ever choose it.
