I am not stronger than you, but I did check chess365's opening explorer and found that your approach, which you questioned, is far from a novelty and has been tried by masters and senior masters. http://www.365chess.com/opening.php?m=14&n=250480&ms=e4.d6.d4.Nf6.Nc3.g6.Be3.c6.a4.Bg7.h3.O-O.g4&ns=3.51.29.52.70.75.900.1516.6682.6124.5360.6125.250480
Came as a surprise to me since your approach looked quite odd to me, and I questioned whether it was just a position that computers dont evaluate well.
I'm following an advice from Yasser Seirawan: Presenting serious analysis to stronger players. Hope you can give me some feedback, thanks a lot.
I used a computer for the analysis:
