When someone trades a piece usually in the early game, in a non-threatening opening, what is the purpose if it develops a piece for the opponent ? I tried to demonstrate what I mean in the two chess ''games'' further down:
Here black takes the knight and enables white to develop his queen, giving him some tempo (although I am not sure, if this is a desired position for queen)
That's at least how I understand it. However, I frequently see these or similar moves being played, so I'm sure there is some purpose for it. I don't know what purpose though. Thanks in advance and sorry for my poor english
