This opening will get you pooped in very little time. I have no idea why it is even considered a "Book opening."

Why would you play this opening? Just shoot yourself; it's much quicker.

this is not likely as an opening, if you want to win as white

Chess_Champion26, the rook is not likely to come out on h3 because if Black plays d5, the bishop on c8 will cover h3. If Black plays e5, the queen will cover h4. It is very likely that playing g6 is a bad idea because that move gives White's h-pawn a target.

ABSOLUTELY AWFUL, this opening will get you killed and let black have the center. you're going to have to defend it at some point because that opening is a free ticket to the center for black.....plus there goes your castling chances on the kingside and bye bye rook
