I'm not afraid of "normal lines".  The problem lines for crafty involve
castling to opposite sides of the board.  My asymmetric king safety will make
it more concerned with trying to defend its own king than trying to attack
the opponent's king.  That is a problem when you think about it.

It will be tuned out at some point in time and the problem will go away.  But
for the moment...
