there's no point sacking a rook if the position is drawish. It could easily become losing. 
A new line in the Scandinavian Defense?

So, I was playing around with some analysis tools and found this exchange sacrifice line in the Scandinavian, and it has never been played according to the database.
Stockfish 15 at depth 30 says this position is +0.00 for white after 11. Ng5. Apparently, black is up an exchange but their weak king gives white enough compensation. What do you think about this line?
