    Its not madness the resulting position is a very sharp one but probably incredibly equal.

    Chess_d3mon,as we can see BL prefers to take the 2 bishops instead of the king's rook.This leaves WH with less pieces,although material will be about the same after 12...Nxc4.Besides, if BL plays 10...Nxh1 then the knight is blocked at the corner and will be soon captured.

    Another notice is that the WH king is not safe in the middle of the board.
