I've been trying Phalanx, LG2000 and Yace and none one them is chosing Bc4.

I think Bc4 is good because the two choices for black are poor. The exchange of
bishops gives the white king a headstart to the two black pawns and support for
the passed pawn. With Bxg2 instead the black bishop is trapped.

Well, that's the best I can offer for analysis as a non chess player.

Best wishes...
