Chess Openings Tier Lists by GM Hikaru Nakamura and IM Levy Rozman
Chess openings are rated in terms of their appropriateness vis-a-vis player skill level - i.e., beginner vs intermediate vs GM’s, etc. They frequently refer to some openings as "garbage" or "bad" (an unfortunate choice of terms). However, these qualifiers are meant to convey how appropriate the specific opening is for the level of player being discussed, in terms of, for example, how much so-called "theory" (i.e., documented variations) the opening encompasses, or how much emphasis the opening places on positional versus tactical skills in order to play it well.
So, an opening they refer to as "garbage" for a beginner may in fact be appropriate for higher rated players who typically know more of the theory for particular openings and have a more highly developed understanding of positional concepts. For each of the openings discussed be sure, also, to pay attention to whether the evaluation is from White’s or Black’s perspective...

No, no, no no no, if you play with someone who knows white theory (literally everyone that plays d4 who is above 2300), you have something like a 30% winrate
Examples?
