Nice report! Can you please play stock fish to prove it?
A Bust to the Sicilian Defense

I have tried to confine myself to posts that I am qualified to make. Let me know if you want to attempt to identify a specific quote of me doing otherwise.

Haha apologies, I wasn’t trying to imply otherwise, I was just curious
... The Closed Sicilian allows 1. e4 c5 2. Nc3?! e5!, binding the d4-square, and Black is nominally better. ...
Has 2...c5 been advocated as a reaction to 1 e4 e5 2 Nc3 ?

That’s a good point. Also Nc3 gives black drawing chances

Alapin is neutralized by e6!
Black can always play differently. I’m which case he merely loses differently
Show an example in 20-60min rapid vs. somebody about your rating range. I'm so done with your bs 5 min games

I think I will soon show a 45 minute otb game soon in which White won with the Alapin quickly .

I wasn't asking you. I was asking staples13
The simple fact that you say "And the rest is only a matter of technique" in your initial post is wrong. If I remember well, 27...f4 leads to a draw. It was a great game by Deep Blue, but humans are always at a disadvantage against computer because humans can blunder. 23.d5 ! is a brilliant move and 25.b3 is just really nice. BTW, Kasparov did not give up playing the Sicilian. Just this sample, easy line is playable for black:
I have the feeling that @staples13 is never showing why any of the good lines for black are bad. You just posted random blitz games where your opponent played really badly and where you played well to take advantage of that : Take the start of this game that you posted :
I could give you theis games (it didn't happen I'm just inventing), with your style of comments, to justify e4 f5 for black(which by the way is really bad for black)
That's the way it looks to us when U write that e4 c5 is unsound

Yeah agree.

4. D4 and white wins
How long did it take you to write all that?
