Having a pawn protect a piece in an outpost is good. I can pin the knight with my bishop if I go to b5. The pin isn’t the best trick, but it grants me flexibility and can also enable me to stop the progress of the doubled pawns.
I have a question for you engine users out there

Be3 is a natural developing move.

b5 is not a outpost cause there is a c pawn
Which is why I said it was a semi-outpost. It’ll take time for the opponent to kick away the bishop, and that can only be done by permanently putting the pawn on that square. The knight can’t have that, which weakens central power.

An immediate capture would lead to dire consequences for my opponent. Just do the calculations.

By the way, how was I under attack? What the rook going to do? Capture my bishop?
There are no attacks I should be worried about.

okay what if hxg5
That just exposes the king. I can check it with the knight.
