well a variety of plans is nice, and you can look for moves which can be useful in as many of them as possible, and let black chose for you what direction to go. If i were you i wouldnt look at hard analysis really, I would play some games and develop a feel for them. Its really not rare that there are moves in classical openings which appear to be better, but are less commonly played. In fact they may actually be better, but I would nto trust computer judgement in a very manouvering sort of position like this.like i said, i dont much trust f3 idea anyway, it just seems too commital and weakening. how to claim much advantage against qgd? seems very hard, its simply a clear and solid opening. You can be happy that less solid stuff is more popular. Theres a couple of things in my own repitoire where I am aware that black can play a certain way and really not sure if I have advantage at all, not even a small one. I dont think its a big deal...as long as you understand the position you can just play it.
this opening is not sharp, and its not much that is fixed for either color. I would not worry much about analyzing it, just be familiar with ideas. save hard analysis for sharper, concrete openings.
