[b]Your point was it doesn't matter what moves you make in the opening, I disagree.
No, my point is that there are more than just one good first move.
Likewise with reccomending 1.b3 as an opening Repertoire, if you want to play it because you enjoy it, more power to you, but it doesn't represent good advice to tell someone else to do so.
Look at the RHP stats.[/b]
There are many reasons besides win % why a novice should not play 1.b3 unless improving their play is not high on their list.
