You're correct.

Yes, the Bongcloud is good. Here are the reasons why: 

1. You put your opponent under psychological pressure. If you draw or win against them, they would feel very bad. Therefore, they will try to punish you. 

2. You are trolling them 

3. You are following the footsteps of the world champion

4. King is worth 4 points right? so why not use it 

5. you are avoiding the main lines and are pioneering a new way of playing chess

Seems like bad etiquette to not accept the bong cloud when it's offered.

I thought the king was worth infinite points.

I also learned King was worth infinite. Maybe he's wrong.

The bongcloud gives +10 for white if you let stockfish run for about an hour. I have been using it for years with much success

 

WHO SAID STOCKFISH GIVES +10 EVALUATION IF YOU LET IT ANALYZE THE BONGCLUB FOR ABOUT A HOUR??? I'd analyzed for more than 2 hours and still it shows -2.13 (Depth 38)

if you analyze the bongcloud for 69 days it will show +420

I have a chess app on my phone that I beat with the bong cloud at the candidate master level.  I only have a 900 chess.com rating.  It kinda reveals a little bit about how the app was programmed.  It doesn't know how to think when the game deviates to fast from the best book moves.

These are the starting moves in Magnus vs. Hikaru in which they intentionally drew by repetition.(The Double Bongcloud) Please do not play this.

Nobel Prize for troll opening.

Otherwise better to play is the London system which is undoubtedly better and which has already generated so much hatred that any good troll can put it in their opening repertoire.

Nice reply, after only 13 years of thinking.
