Let's move it on a bit then and find out if Qxe4+ is so bad.

White does not have a pawn centre, Black does.

White cannot castle, Black can.

White's king is exposed, Black's is not.

White has a knight on the edge of the board, Black has one in the centre of the
board.

White should think about defence, Black is only attacking.

I would say that the attack for Black is still very much on.
