Illustrate a scenario where an overloaded piece becomes a critical vulnerability and explain how to exploit this.

An overloaded piece in chess is a piece that has too many defensive responsibilities, meaning it is tasked with defending multiple critical squares or other pieces simultaneously. This situation creates a vulnerability that can be strategically exploited to gain a tactical or positional advantage.
