Using Pepito to study f5 and then Nxd5, it seems that f5 is a simple
transposition of the Rh1 idea, and (looking at Dieter's analysis) your move is
shown to be excellent as Dieter's analysis is a transposition of the Nxd5 idea.
The Nxd5 idea slowly gains appeal to Pepito, and it sees a problem for white by
ply 12.  I think for sure Nxd5 (or a transposition of it) is the best move.  But
someone like Come, Uri or Vincent will probably tell me why I am totally wrong
soon. ;-)
