A double missed mistake in the opening

People who describe situations in terms of "the eval" or "the engine" persuade only like-minded individuals.

He describes the position in the blog too on top of stating eval

Sometimes his explanations are unpersuasive, for example:

In the actual capture line, the computer would not take with the queen, but with the bishop, but after capturing with the queen, White doesn't have to be lured to attack the queen with an unnecessary knight move. Instead they move bishops on e2 and d2, castle and they're fine. Meanwhile Black has an isolated queen's pawn, a knight that will develop to a6 and a sad d-pawn who will go to d6 before anything consequential can be done. A dreadful position.

What exactly don't you like in that paragraph? I am willing to improve.

It's certainly good enough to get attention, and it sounds good...

Players tend to underestimate just how important piece activity is, and how little pawn structure matters

Well, my paragraph touched both. The bad pawn structure and the inability for pieces to develop anywhere in time.
