What, you are Drawgood? How are the ratings so different? And the different flags what?
as far as i can see, it's a genuine question from OP, and makes sense to ask even though engine lines exist. i mean, you can say "ask engine" about a lot of things.
maybe you don't care about evaluating positions (not sure how one can care about chess that way but okay), but that doesn't give you the license to invalidate those who do

where is the pressure
white just plays Bd2 and consolidates his position, if c4 Nd4 and then Nb5 or something, etc
nb6
what you doing?
this is why Qb4 is the only way for black to fight
its extremely tricky and it shows that the white pawn on a4/b2 will be a liabiity
and whites e4 pawn is weak

i never said literally anything of what you said, and never implied that i thought any of those things either
anyone can go and claim a bunch of things about someone else without basis, but that doesnt give any of the statements any basis...

now both nc4 and c4 are bad
and if you try to trade queens with qc4 there's a5! Qxe2 nxe2 Nbd7 Ra4! Nb6 Ra3! Nbd7 Rc4! the point being that you play Bc3 and Nd2-Nc4 after you move your rook from c4 to a4
Qb4 isn't bad. I think it's a pretty good try.

so i was experimenting with some more benko lines and noticed that Qb4 lines can give black great counterplay without his usually being cramped on the queenside type of play
this move refuses white any Nb5 tricks and gives black enough time to clamp down on the position with c4 and Nb6, targetting the a4 pawn. this just seems to give black everything he wants, but why does white still have +0.9 here? what does white get that gives him that much other than the pawn? this line seems to give black much of his needed compensation for the pawn with major, real pressure on the queenside.
