Basically identical besides the tempo. I use these two constantly, and I wonder if working on sicilian natural works on your english, and vise versa.
Bonus Questions:
-What is an "open" or a "closed" game. Does closed just mean that the pawns are entangled and the game is very slow and positional?
-What is all this I read about "modern/hypermodern" openings and defences? Are these just weird newer openings/defences that the older masters never liked to use, or never thought of?
