I see your point of course but I thought H9 was supposed to be good on
positional knowledge.  There's no way white can reasonably or inteligently
expect black to underpromote and then get itself stuck in a corner.

I might play chess in a style that hopes the opponent will make a bad move but
surely H9 can't have that as a 'feature'.
