Stavros, while you are right, that doesn't make the statement that a6 is usually not as strong in the French wrong. Sure, there are lines where a6 is playable in the French, but a6 is far more thematic in the Sicilian.
When nothing is forced...

XJX is fabulous. It's natural he should have jealous detractors, comes with the territory.
He's energetic and speaks in absolutes, so very good for beginners for example.
Not true I never deal in Absolutes. Only Siths deal in Absolutes.
I'm not a Sith. Even if people try to label me as one.
An the examples I show are just for fun. An are interesting. No one esle brings them up. I believe most people simply don't feel like wasting there time.

the jealousy is deep!
TY Ramona. Glad someone finds my posts interesting at least lol.

The pictures and jokes make them annoying to me.
But they seem to also have a lot of info, and I'm sure lots of people find them helpful. It's probably also fun for you, and even helps you remember / learn as you put the posts together.
Don't mind me, you can't please everyone ;)
Well is it becuase you think my jokers are corny?
Like what if I spiced up the joke would you like it if it made you laugh lol.
well a6 is less useful for black in the french. In fact its somewhat counterproductive. a5 is played more often than a6 in the french.
Yeah no idea its strange.
