Guess what will happen >if several top GM work hard on a counter strategy against comps, in other words >if GM adopt 'Eduard'... You clearly have no clue as to what actually happens. Roman may be good against comps and there are other GM's and IM's that are, and there are also many, that try daily over and over and over and simply see loss after loss after loss.
