Why would people play the bongcloud, it’s useless. It’s just getting your king exposed. And also a major thing is to castle! I don’t get why people play this opening unless they don’t want to get better. It’s a waste of time for both the players. Please point out why to we have to play THIS opening

because you win either way, if your opponent wins, you can just tell them that you were playing with them or they needed the handicap. On the other hand, if you win, you can make fun of them for losing to the bongcloud. Either way, its bad sportsmanship
