If you where to take the challenge (hypothetically of course since Jose C
already stepped up to the plate) and 1.a3 would be your way of playing "anti
comp" then it would be your job to avoid such play, since then it would be
concidered "anti comp" (by your own definition)
We clearly need some more discussions on what is to be considered "anti comp"
So far the best way i can discribe it, from all the responses to my post, would
be that it is indeed a very individual matter.
