You might as well ask him why he won't play me. Or you.

Though I don't play anti-comp closed stonewall setups. Moreover, every time someone plays stonewall against me, I usually succeed in exchanging my bad Bishop (c1 or c8), plant my Knight on e4/e5, followed by f4/f5 (depending on whether I am black or white), and end up with winning position (good knight versus bad Bishop). I am not a fan of Stonewall. It's not good especially if I know you are going to play it. Anyway, remember Pablo is not just "anyone". He has proven himself to be better than even strong masters against comps.
