Telling a beginner Qf3 is "book" is probably one of those times.
It is actually not so simple. Even though the move isn't objectively best, lots of people would stand by it as I have just learned. I do understand arguments that e4 e5 f4 isn't objectively best opening and gives black advantage but to me for most players Qf3 is going to end up being a real bad choice.
But for beginners this is disaster if say f3 e5 g4 and g4 would still be a book move because it was played in tournaments. I would lose my confidence in the whole review thing if I were new. By repeating this kind of 'theory' I would be losing majority of games without realising g4 albeit book move, is actually a blunder! ![]()
I use game reviews only for youtube to get that nice mark notation on the board and accuracy for both players but other than that? I would shy away from it. Dont get me started on the comments after each move suggested!
I believe that most book moves here are based on showing up a minimum number of times in the Master database.
